The should have been a file called CHECKSUM.MD5 in the directory that you downloaded the iso from. It has the md5 checksum that you need to check the downloaded mini-iso against. If you are using Windows to burn the iso, there are programs that do an md5 calculation available. It is a built-in on FreeBSD and you can read about it by doing a "man md5".
