I don't have an answer to your problem, but if you have the cdrecord 
package installed, you can verify an image burned to cd/dvd pretty 
easily:

readcd dev=<dev> f=- | cmp whatever.iso

where if you're on the old 2.4 stuff <dev> is gonna be some scsi 
device spec (you'll need ide-scsi loaded if it's really an ATAPI 
drive), and with the new cdrecord package for 2.6 since ide-scsi is 
gone and no longer needed (yay!) it could be something 
like /dev/cdrom.

You can probably substitute something like "dd bs=2048 if=<dev>" for 
readcd, but I haven't tried it.
