So, fun fact;
If you plug a USB drive into a Microsoft computer (or in whatever that has Windows OS running at the time), here’s a thing that _can_ happen:
Microsoft checks the content of the USB drive, and in the process attempts to RUN the files. Thus changing the checksum of files.
When attempting to install Linux from one of these files, it _can_ fail the checksum.
This happened to me with Fedora specifically, and I randomly had issues with other distros that I suspect was caused by the same.
