The best approach for checking burned CDs, which is what Red Hat used, is 
implanting a MD5 checksum to it by implantisomd5, and verify later with 
checkisomd5. 

So the CD itself and checkisomd is all you need to verify it, even after 
several years, and you've forgot where you put its original md5sum. The 
implantisomd5 and checkisomd5 are available in Debian (later) as the 
isomd5sum package.
