bitcheck

What is bitcheck?

• It is a simple rust script that will perform the md5 and sha1 hash check of the ArchLabs ISO images.

Why - Safety. Nothing is perfect, but rust goes along way to make it more difficult for things like: out-of-bounds reads/writes, use-after-free, null pointer dereference and data races to occur. All of which, can lead to potentially exploitable behavior

How - To use this script, simply install it, with cargo. username@example.home> cargo install bitcheck //the script will install to ~/.cargo/bin - It is suggested that the ~/.cargo/bin folder be added to the existing path - This can be done by adding the following line to the .bashrc, in the home folder export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.cargo/bin - Save, exit and relaunch the terminal to load the recent changes. - Currently only two version of ArchLabs can be downloaded. - archlabs-2017-10.iso - archlabs-2017-10-lts.iso username@example.home> bitcheck filename.iso bitcheck , is only intended for use with ArchLabs. Currently, it does not support other distributions.
