CHECKSUM and Verify Instructions

How do I verify my image?

Once you have downloaded an image, verify it for security and integrity. To verify your image, start by downloading the proper CHECKSUM file into the same directory as the image you downloaded.

Workstation

For aarch64 iso For aarch64 images

Server

aarch64 Minimal

For aarch64 iso For aarch64 images

For ppc64le

For s390x

Cloud

For aarch64 images

For ppc64le images

For s390x images

For x86_64 images

Container

Next, import Fedora's GPG key(s):

$ curl -O https://fedoraproject.org/fedora.gpg

You can verify the details of the GPG key(s) here.

Now, verify that the CHECKSUM file is valid:

$ gpgv --keyring ./fedora.gpg *-CHECKSUM

The CHECKSUM file should have a good signature from one of the following keys:

6A51BBABBA3D5467B6171221809A8D7CEB10B464 - Fedora 38
ACB5EE4E831C74BB7C168D27F55AD3FB5323552A - Fedora 37
53DED2CB922D8B8D9E63FD18999F7CBF38AB71F4 - Fedora 36

Finally, now that the CHECKSUM file has been verified, check that the image's checksum matches:

$ sha256sum -c *-CHECKSUM --ignore-missing

If the output states that the file is valid, then it's ready to use!
