As you are booting to floppy, I conjecture this is an older machine incapable of booting to CD-ROM. Many older machines which are fine with pressed CDs have problems with CD-RW and even burned CD-R. You might look at a network install instead. With three CD-ROMs, you may find the network installation preferable to swapping CD-ROMs in and out.
