Further investigation has shown the problem to be with the
unzipping-untarring
of the dowloaded DL iso.  If I do  tar -xjvf DL.iso.tar.bz2  the decompress
files
do not have the correct md5sum.  However if I separately bunzip and then
untar
the files show the correct md5sum.  Not sure why this situation exists.

I am getting along further with the setup of DL.  I have encountered some
problems.  If I can't sort them out I will be back :-)
