I first purchased this in late 1998 as a Retail Full Package, but I later found out that it was available in 3.5" 1.68MB DMF type (but Boot Disk was 1.44MB) through mail order.
I checked now and found that the contents of the Boot Disk for supporting the CD-ROM version and the version supporting the 3.5" diskette were different.

I recommend to buy it from eBay or amazon if you still need to help.
The sha512sum doesn't match for the Microsoft Windows 98 First Edition - Boot Disk (3.5-1.44mb).7z file.
It's supposed to be:

But I get:

Or is it an any other 256-bit 512-bit algorithm?
They are supposed to be SHA1 (160-bit) checksums, but some were corrupted during the DB changeover. Looks like something else has gotten borked.
Got it, thanks! Hopefully they'll be corrected some day.
