howto verify burn?



how do i verify that the burned cd is correctly burned?

i burned a set of Debian 3.0r1 cds and have md5sums of the isos, but they 
don't match the output of
md5sum -b /dev/cdrom

i used x-cdroast 0.98+0alpha9-9 and didn't get any error/warning messages, 
and it all seemed to go fine.

and the cd mounts fine and running md5sum -c md5sum.txt on the cd shows only 
the README.non-US doesn't match, reading that file doesn't show any odd 
characters.
mounting the iso through the loopback shows the same thing (the readme 
doesn't match the md5sum.txt)
the md5 for the iso does match the published md5 for the iso.

xcdroast's verify says that the track matches the iso, but i thought iso 
could be multiple tracks, so it seems like track matches iso is not a good 
thing.

(so far only checked cd 1_non-US)

and google just takes me to the debian faq and similar for verifing the 
download and how to burn, but nothing on verify the burn.
