I had downloaded the alternate CD images through torrents some time last year, and now that I need it again I decided to check it's md5 hash.



$ md5sum ubuntu-11.10-alternate-i386.iso 
b502888194367acdec4d79203e7a539c ubuntu-11.10-alternate-i386.iso


Now the problem is, the reference hashes it's supposed to match to is completely different:



24da873c870d6a3dbfc17390dda52eb8  ubuntu-11.10-alternate-i386.iso


Can I safely conclude the image I downloaded is corrupted?

Yes, if the md5sum does not match, then the file is corrupt. You can restart the torrent and it should correct any errors by downloading the damaged parts again.
