I've downloaded Nethunter for Nexus 7 Lollipop (2013) from https://www.offensive-security.com/kali-linux-nethunter-download/
It lists the SHA-1 Hash as 606e391afe2ff3cef523f64dd66be85779599c78
Twice I've downloaded it now and gotten a hash of 3F8104E6A1ED3D44AF3C159DEDFC77008D334F39
Anyone else have any problems with it? Don't want to install with a bad hash...

I just installed Nethunter yesterday and didn't pay attention to the sha1 hash.
Mine is also 3F8104E6A1ED3D44AF3C159DEDFC77008D334F39 ; the installation works fine so far.

Still we might be MITMed, though. :eek:

Good to see I'm not the only one who noticed this.
I opened a thread in the general questions: https://forums.kali.org/showthread.php?28162-SHA1s-don-t-match-NetHunter-zip

Here's what my SHA-1s are:
File name: kali_linux_nethunter_2.0_razor_lollipop.zip
Download Page says: 606e391afe2ff3cef523f64dd66be85779599c78
My 4 Downloads: 3F8104E6A1ED3D44AF3C159DEDFC77008D334F39 (8 7294 358 bytes, 832MB)

The zip verifies 7zip's archive test and flashes without error, I think someone made a typo or maybe the fixed something in the archive and re-uploaded it without updating checksums.


EDIT:
I used a program called Free Download Manager (http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/) and now the SHA-1's are matching the ones listed on the download page.

The first 4 downloads were done using Firefox and Firefox addons (download managers), so I suspect downloading the zip via Firefox is the problem.
