    Verifying SHA1SUMS

    I've downloaded the .iso and the sha1sums directly from the kali site and as a torrent, I've also tried to retrieve the SHA1SUMS with the terminal which tells me no files changed. Here's this process-

    $ gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 7D8D0BF6
    gpg: requesting key 7D8D0BF6 from hkp server keys.gnupg.net
    gpg: key 7D8D0BF6: "Kali Linux Repository <[email protected]>" not changed
    gpg: Total number processed: 1
    gpg: unchanged: 1
    $ gpg --list-keys --with-fingerprint 7D8D0BF6
    pub 4096R/7D8D0BF6 2012-03-05 [expires: 2018-02-02]
    Key fingerprint = 44C6 513A 8E4F B3D3 0875 F758 ED44 4FF0 7D8D 0BF6
    uid Kali Linux Repository <[email protected]>
    sub 4096R/FC0D0DCB 2012-03-05 [expires: 2018-02-02]
    $ shasum kali-linux-1.1.0a-amd64
    shasum: kali-linux-1.1.0a-amd64:

    also

    $ gpg --verify SHA1SUMS.gpg SHA1SUMS
    gpg: can't open `SHA1SUMS.gpg'
    gpg: verify signatures failed: file open error


    What am I missing? How else can I verify the image? I've tried everything I can find so far. The files are in my downloads folder just by default and from what I understand I can't move them, should I have downloaded elsewhere?

    to check and verify md5 and SHA1 just type those commands in terminal (under any Linux)
    md5sum {file}
    sha1sum {file}

    or under the windows you have excellent free tool

    with which you can add checksum on right click meny on file
