That's good, but it only mentions GPG for checking downloaded .iso
images. GPG is not mentioned at all for stage files.

For example, I don't re-download the installation .iso very often (old
ones are still good, or one can use sysresccd), but I always re-download
the most recent stages (less rebuilding).
