<br>
There is one minor edit:<br>
<br>
I wrote 'You can even zsync the Lubuntu daily iso file directly into the<br>
pendrive for iso-testing.' That was to promise too much. I tried, and<br>
found that zsync is slow with a slow drive and uses some features of an<br>
ext file system while we are using fat32. It is better to use *rsync*<br>
(which is also an alternative in the instructions for iso-testing. I<br>
made this script for 'wily-desktop-i386.iso',<br>
<br>
--------------------------------------------------------------<br>
echo "***** get/update iso file with rsync:"<br>
rsync -tzhhP<br>
rsync://<a href="http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/lubuntu/daily-live/current/wily-desktop-i386.iso" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/lubuntu/daily-live/current/wily-desktop-i386.iso</a><br>
.<br>
<br>
echo "<br>
***** check md5sum:"<br>
wget -O md5sums <a href="http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily-live/current/MD5SUMS" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily-live/current/MD5SUMS</a><br>
grep wily-desktop-i386.iso md5sums>md5sum-desktop<br>
md5sum -c md5sum-desktop<br>
--------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
You need space for two versions of the iso file (plus a little extra<br>
margin). The old one is not wiped until the new one is complete.<br>
<br>
Best regards<br>
Nio<br>
