This link tells you the answer to your problem: http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/...p?articleid=18
I will summarise it here:
Log in as root via $ su -, mount the CD with "mount /media/cdrom" (or your corresponding mountpoint, if it is different.
Then it is recommended that you run "export SETUP_CDROM=/media/cdrom" to prevent the installer from polling all the drives constanly during the install.
Start the installer from the base directory where your CDROM is mounted (i.e. /media) dir via # ./cdrom/linux_installer.sh, not by running # ./linux_installer.sh since then the mountpoint is blocked and you won't be able to switch CDs.
Since you need to unmount and mount the next CDs login a second time as root and change into the /media directory to run # umount cdrom and # mount cdrom when needed.
Then it will as you to insert "Play Disc", this is Disc 1, then it will ask you for "Disc Number One" which is in reality is Disc 2 and finally it will ask you for "Disc Number Two" which is Disc 3.
Confusing? it certainly is! blame the damn game devs for messing up the cd names.
