GPG signed md5sum
I would like it if the knoppix team would provide a gpg signed md5sum file for the knoppix iso's.
I downloaded knoppix 3.4 from a torrent last night.
This morning I looked at the md5sum - and it is different than the md5sum I got from an official knoppix mirror.
With Fedora, the gpg sign the md5sum file, and the torrents include the signed md5sum file - so that I can verify the md5sum is good, and then verify that the iso is good.
I can't trust an md5sum from an unknown torrent (and the one I used did not provide one anyway) unless it is properly signed by the knoppix team, and it would make it easier to properly verify a torrent download if the torrent had a signed md5sum with it.

it is (from the 3.4 us file
