Ubuntu 18.04 Server sha256sum
I'm downloading an ISO image of Ubuntu 18.04 server AMD 64 bits from http://releases.ubuntu.com/bionic/
On that page two ISO images are found:
- http://releases.ubuntu.com/bionic/ubuntu-18.04.1.0-live-server-amd64.iso
- http://releases.ubuntu.com/bionic/ubuntu-18.04.1-live-server-amd64.iso
From that page, the file SHA256SUMS can be downloaded in order to check the integrity of the images.
The first one ( 18.04.1.0 ) is listed in SHA256SUMS file, and its checksum is OK.The second one ( 18.04.1 ) isn't listed there.
On the other hand, if you download an ISO image directly from the main Ubuntu web page ( https://www.ubuntu.com/#download ), an automatic download of the second one ( 18.04.1 ) is started.
My questions are the following ones:
- Which is the latest release 18.04.1.0 or 18.04.1 ?
- Where is the SHA256SUMS file containing the checksum of 18.04.1 release ?
Thanks for any clue.

Have you tried downloading both ISOs and comparing them (viacmp iso1 iso2or something)? I would guess one is just a hard or symlink to the other (for whatever reason, maybe a bug).

You are right ! I downloaded both and compared them with diff command. They are the same. Thanks !

Hey, thank you answering and trying so quickly. I just wanted to try myself but given my current download speed it would take ~20 minutes. To be really, really sure, you could also dosha256sum iso1 iso2and compare the checksums.

Thank you to give me that clue. It should be great if maintainers of Ubuntu release page commented that 18.04.1 release is only a hard link to 18.04.1.0 release in order to avoid confusion, or include both on SHA256SUMS file, so whatever image you download, checksum file contains it.
