The cover page displays fine, and the start of the book (part0002.html onwards) as well, but I don't get why the first two pages don't display correctly.

I attached the two files if you have time to fiddle with them. You'll see they are very simple in terms of structure and css, especially the epub file (since I made it from scratch).
In the ePub, edit the OPF and replace <guide/> with...
Code:
  <guide>
    <reference href="start.xhtml" title="Start" type="start"/>
  </guide>
It may work.
