Hi, all I downloaded the latest 9.1.2.3 GUI firmware upgrade file for 32 bit and used SHA256 key supplied.
43a6e65d2bd16c63daf247541bd6fc0b5824b7572094959a7319256b215c1fb1

However when trying to apply I get invalid firmware wrong checksum.

Is the supplied checksum incorrect?

All help greatly appreciated!

Whoa! You know the reason for the hash value right? To ensure you got the same file that was posted. You cannot create your own hash values and also say you got the right file, it was in tact, or someone didn't place a hacked copy on the site.

But it turns out that the download page is incorrect and the hash value you generated does match the download area. http://download.freenas.org/

So the website download page is incorrect, what a shocker! This happens frequently and I hate using that http page like this.
