Hi,

to grant privacy and security it's important to check the ISO against a
signed checksum by a trusted key.

If this isn't done in the first place, all following efforts to grant
protection could be futile.

So for Tails read
https://tails.boum.org/install/download/openpgp/index.en.html .

To get 64 bit architecture Ubuntu desktop flavours including an
automatically check against a signed checksum, I wrote the attached
script.

After saving the attached script as

  luamd64_1610.sh

change to the directory were you saved it by running

  cd /path/to/the/script/

then run

  chmod a+x luamd64_1610.sh

and after that e.g. run

  ./luamd64_1610.sh lubuntu 17.10

Note, still one issue remains when using this script

Regards,
Ralf
