Sorry, no. However, you can remaster the CD according to the included
instructions.

This is not reproducible with the CDs from year 2006. So it looks like one
of the following bad things happened:

* Bad download of the CD - verify the SHA1 sum of the iso against
http://ftp.lfs-matrix.net/pub/lfs-livecd/SHA1SUMS

* Bad burn - please burn with the -dao or -raw crdecord flag, and verify
the SHA1 sum of /dev/cdrom against
http://ftp.lfs-matrix.net/pub/lfs-livecd/SHA1SUMS

* Your CD-ROM is manufactured before year 1999 and doesn't properly
support DMA. Try booting with "linux ide=nodma" command line.

* Bad RAM - as the CD itself is compressed, it is very sensitive to
single-bit damages. memtest86+ is your friend.

BTW, this might also fix the EHCI error.

After sending the mail, I realized that I hadn't been untarring from the CD,
but from a copy of packages on the hard drive.  Untarring from the CD
corrects the problem with the packages, though I'm still not sure about the
USB HD problem.  Is EHCI supposed to be compatible with USB 1.1?  Or am I
right that OHCI supports that?
