Though, I believe the files on the mirrors are identical. But who knows..
Sure, I didn't tried from "ftp1.", but I can confirm that files from "ftp."
are ok.

There are *'sha1sum'* for sha1 and* 'sha256sum'* for sha256 algorithms, of
course.

You have to download* 'SHA1SUM' *and *'SHA256SUM'* files from the same
directory with ISOs, and then you may check the integrity with the following
commands:
 * *$ sha1sum -c SHA1SUM
and
  $ sha256sum -c SHA256SUM

(you should see positive checking results with the files you have
downloaded.)
