Orangepi4_2.1.0_ubuntu_xenial_desktop_linux4.4.179.img # Image file


7)After decompressing the image, you can first use the sha256sum -c *.sha command to calculate whether the checksum is correct. If the prompt indicates that the downloaded image is correct, you can safely burn it to the TF card. If the checksum does not match, it indicates There is a problem with the downloaded image, please try to download again

test@test:~$ sha256sum -c *.sha
Orangepi4_2.1.0_ubuntu_xenial_desktop_linux4.4.179.img: success
