I'd point out, though, that it might be a fair amount of work to no purpose.
When installing from the LiveCD locks up, it's usually because of hardware
incompatibilities, rather than just a faulty CD drive.
You might try to get your hands on an "alternate" install CD, first - I've
heard they sometimes handle some hardware combinations that the liveCD
can't - I can't say I can confirm that, as I've always used the alternates.
