Hey Todd.  My name is Michael, and I have a lot of experience dealing with
Supermicro hardware and the LiveCD as a combination.  I'm not an authority
on LiveCD creation or maintenance, but I do have some tricks.  What's the
specific error you're getting?

I've used DD to copy a livecd to a USB stick many times, so I would say
it's probably fine to back it up that way.  You may want to test it on a
clean separate USB stick first.
