sha256 verification

hi

was wondering why the images i downloaded from here…

don’t have the correct sha256 checksum outputs that i get when i try to verify the package

all other topics about this seem to be from 2010
thanks

Which one is wrong… sha256sum file.img.xz ?

apologies RobC
i was using mint’s built in verification tool and it seems my keyboard is about to die…
its taken over 10 minutes to type this reply
did the xtracted and .xg manually and it as correct…
Mints tool won’t pick up the compressed file extension… and along with this dam key board, confused myself…
