I have made multiple copies of the package CD. And every time I try to emerge kde from it , it has an error at the same place. Is there a site that I can download all packages, that are on the package CD, to my HD as files, to install from HD instead of CD? Is there is where is it, and where is the best directory to but it in while downloading all the files (hopefully it is a tar)?

I'm assuming you're burning all these coasters from the same iso image? If so, have you checked its MD5sum to make sure its not corrupted? If it isn't, and it's just that your cd burner temporarily hates you, you could try mounting the iso image directly, and just copying the files out of that:
Code:
mount -o loop <iso-image> /mnt/iso
