Hello!
Until I picked up an external USB CD/DVD burner of my own, I used to have to do that, also. I'm glad I did - both DVD drives on my PC don't want to work, even though I fixed the stretched drive belts on them.
Sometimes, for some reason, USB flash drive-installed LiveCDs seem to have issues - issues that make it easier to break out the external than to try and figure out why a flash drive install won't work properly.
As I continue to play around with creating my own LiveCDs, I just might trim some stuff from the 1.0.6 ISOs to get them down to below a too-big-for-CD size, and put them into cloud storage for you. When one really thinks about it, many things that come on them can be installed later, after the ISO is installed to hard disk...
