Hot - Vista beta 2 download servers ready?

Is there an MD5 or other summer/integrity checker available? I 've got 3.12
GB (3.13 if your rounding up). The Akamai DLM siezed up so I'm not certain if
I have the entire DL. The Akamai DLM states 3.13 file size so I may have
gotten lucky.

I don't use that one, I use the one from Ahead Nero
http://ww2.nero.com/nero6/eng/Nero_MD5_Verifier.html

Here are the MD5/CRC values for x86 or x64 depending on which every ISO you
downloaded:

x86
- File Size = 3.12 GB (3,355,598,848 bytes)
- CRC Value = 0x67E089E0
- MD5 Value = 0E733AB1A8E8FF9A8684FD3639332773
x64
- File Size = 4.01 GB (4,309,368,832 bytes)
- CRC Value = 0x48697711
- MD5 Value = E43502D0A15EADD551119D5639859E04

Paste the MD5 Checksum for either x64 or x86 depending on which one you want
check in Step 1, Step 2 - Browse to where you stored the ISO on your drive
and open it and it will automatically start the varification process and
generate the has in the third field, if it matches Step 1, then you are
safe.

Andre,
Thanks a bunch. When I was looking at my file size I didn't open properties
to check size- only looked at the closed Explorer view and didn't take too
much notice of whatever the incomplete file extension was. But I got thru to
resume the remainder and everything checks OK. Used both "Nero" and "MD5
Summer".

One more Question- Can I install Vista across a network thru XP Pro SP2 to a
clean logical drive without disturbing the current XP install? On your blog
you say it's possible to install thru XP to a logical drive- I'm just adding
a network to it. I only have one DVD and I'm trying to avoid moving it to the
target machine for a single installation. XP SP2 is on both machines.

Yes, thats how I done a few of my installs, from a network location. Please
note though, Vista will install its own boot manager.
