Hi Supamax,

Thanks for starting this thread. I hope it will eventually grow into a useful reference for all Amiga users.

To start with, here are the CRC32 checksums of the ADF images dumped from my Amiga OS 3.1 disk set, write-protected straight from the shrink-wrap:
INSTALL 3.1 - 901,120 bytes $27B3C15A
WORKBENCH 3.1 - 901,120 bytes $576B08F9
LOCALE 3.1 - 901,120 bytes $92F2770A
EXTRAS 3.1 - 901,120 bytes $786A7C59
FONTS 3.1 - 901,120 bytes $A152083D
STORAGE 3.1 - 901,120 bytes $B16AE967

I have colour-coded these checksums green to indicate that I am sure these disks have never been written to from new. I fact, I have three sets of these disks. Those I am not sure about I shall colour-code orange, until someone can confirm their validity. Out of habit, I have prefixed the checksums '$' to indicate hexadecimal notation, but I can change this if anyone finds it objectionable.

I have many more original Amiga OS disks and sets from 1.3 to 3.0. I shall dump them and post the checksums here as time permits.

I would encourage all users to contribute likewise to this thread in order to increase the certainty of the data.

Thankyou,

prowler
