Joe,
I think the MD5 file was out of sync in the past week.
I downloaded the i386 install44.iso a few days ago. I just checked the

file I downloaded, and it does have the "correct" MD5

(f87b839db833380f41f02bd7fffb2d27) according to what you posted.
*But* on the day I downloaded it, I was very sure the MD5 file

on the FTP site was advertising a different hash.
Like you, I thought I had a bad ISO, so I downloaded the ISO file

from a different mirror, but the second ISO file had the same hash as

the first.
So the MD5 file was either "ahead" or "behind." Since the install44.iso

file I downloaded was dated Sep 20, the MD5 file was probably behind.
Or maybe it's just one of those transient things that happen when

FTP sites are being mirrored.
Or maybe you and I are both crazy. :)
