Hi, in this page – http://www.foresightlinux.org/gnome-lite.html – the download link over the cd icon directs to the 2.1.0 edition. There’s an updated link at the end of the page but the main one should be fixed. Thanks.

the SHA for the Lite CD is not what is being displayed on the downloaded iso. Your post is saying b4104e4bfc3ecb38e3a80eae7ec48b7035187dee
The downloaded iso is:
1eefc9151620bd4676627a237f42dfa8
Just an FYI
