I'm not sure how I would do that with a CD, but if you created a
bootable USB drive with some persistent storage, it's quite straight
forward to do. 


Assuming a 1GB USB drive, you can create from the command line with:

livecd-iso-to-disk --overlay-size-mb 250 <ISO file> <device>

Then just boot from the USB drive and copy over the files as before.

Cheers,
