How do you check this "checksum of the partition" ?
I'm guessing OP literally checksums the volume from the blockdevice. If I'm right, it could be anything, really, lots offilesystem metadata moving around without actually touching any filecontents (access times, for example).

Probably ReiserFS.  Nothing so Evil as xfs!

xfs as a /boot partition? <shivers>
