Can't Verify OSX Mavericks Download

Installation of Mavericks fails and states that download is corrupt and to redownload from the App Store. This is my 4th time deleting and restarting the download. File is the correct size, intact, and in the applications folder. Any help is much appreciated. Even though I have Comcast Extreme 105, I hate burning the cycles on this.

I am having same problem. For those who can successfully run the install, can you get the SHA1 checksum for your installation?


Open the terminal, and run this:


/usr/bin/openssl sha1 /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg


I'm getting this:


SHA1(/Applications/Install OS X Mavericks.app/Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg)= 6e3b5d13ee73186945197b040ad44378b0a7af58
