Jamie first off welcome to the list :)
Second this isn't an official *buntu project. Where did you download the
image from looking at the site for it you have to download from them
alone.  The md5sum checker built into the cd may of been borrowed from
Ubuntu in which case the md5sum may not of been updated.  Have you
simply tried running the cd?
