Generate a list of md5 checksums with 

$ md5sum -b `find -type f` > chksums
in the root dir of the original file system 
copy the chksums file to the root of the new file system and run
$ md5sum -c chksums

this should check all the files against binary read checksums generated in the first 
command.

This should work :)

hope it helps
