You could do diff -r dirctoryA directoryB > somefile.txt. I use this method to verify that multiple burns of a CD (test models for QA) are identical. It checks all the files on a box and lists either the difference if it's an ascii file or a message if the binaries are different. For a 400 meg cd comparison it takes about 20 minutes but it does find rw errors etc for us.
