IIRC, you calculate the CRC-32 of the page, then XOR it over where it's
supposed to end up. No need to preseed (or more accurately, it doesn't
matter how you preseed, the result is the same).
For checking it doesn't matter either, just checksum the page and if
you get zero it's correct.
Have a nice day,
