+                If your sources are available as a tarball instead of a Git repository, you
+                will need to provide the URL to the tarball as well as an 
+                <filename>md5</filename> or <filename>sha256</filename> sum of
+                the download. 
+                Here is an example:
+                <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     SRC_URI="ftp://ftp.infradead.org/pub/mtd-utils/mtd-utils-1.4.9.tar.bz2"
+     SRC_URI[md5sum]="82b8e714b90674896570968f70ca778b"
+                </literallayout>
+                You can generate the <filename>md5</filename> or <filename>sha256</filename> sums 
+                by using the <filename>md5sum</filename> or <filename>sha256sum</filename> commands
+                with the target file as the only argument. 
+                Here is an example:
+                <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     $ md5sum mtd-utils-1.4.9.tar.bz2 82b8e714b90674896570968f70ca778b mtd-utils-1.4.9.tar.bz2
