Download

Verify

Once downloaded, verify your new ISO image file using checksum.

Anyone can produce fake ISO images, it is your responsibility to check you are downloading the official ones.

Download the ISO image then click on the sha256sum.txt and sha256sum.txt.gpg buttons from the Mint web site to see the key hash you can compare to.

Or you can save the SHA256 sums provided by Linux Mint locally.
