NAME

implantisomd5 \- generate and embed MD5 sum of ISO9660 file for anaconda installer

SYNOPSIS

implantisomd5 [--force] [--supported-iso] isofile

OPTIONS

--force
Overwrite the Application Data region of the PVD even it seems to be used otherwise. Needed if re-applying implantisomd5 .
--supported-iso
Flag the image as "RHLISOSTATUS=1". Currently this only causes the installer to skip mediacheck when no explicit "mediacheck" boot flag is passed.

DESCRIPTION

implantisomd5 embeds the MD5 sum for media check function for the anaconda(8) installer.

implantisomd5 calculates the MD5 sum of the .iso image given, and embeds the sum in the Application Data region of the Primary Volume Descriptor (PVD) of the ISO9660 image.

Note: the MD5 sum is not the plain md5sum(1) of the file.
