IIRC, you can in some cases get the wrong value with that due to padding
(but it has been a while since I tried that, so that may not be a
problem now).  If you are looking at the master or mirror directory, you
could use dd to only read the right number of bytes from the disk and
pipe the output to sha256sum.
