how to check md5sums of official debian discs



Naively, I tried 

md5sum /cdrom/*

and it locked my deb3.0 computer hard.  (maybe because I had a disc burning 
in /cdrw simultaneously?) I notice each CD comes with an md5sum.txt with the 
sums for all files on the disk, how can I use it  to make sure each disk is 
perfect?

The debian.org download page covers checking the downloaded iso images, but 
not the burned discs.
