## May I run Etcher in older macOS versions?

Etcher GUI is based on the [Electron](http://electron.atom.io/) framework, [which only supports macOS 10.10 and newer versions](https://github.com/electron/electron/blob/master/docs/tutorial/support.md#supported-platforms).

## Why does the SHA512 sum of my Etcher release not match its YAML file?

The binary encodings will indeed match (assuming the file is uncorrupted). However, the command line output is hexadecimal encoded and the generated YAML file is base64 encoded.
