If a file manager pops up when you put the first cd in, close it. Open a shell (command terminal) and as root, run the installer like so: # /media/cdrom/install When you run this command you should be in any directory other than /media/cdrom. If you are in /media/cdrom then the cd cannot be umounted so it can't be ejected either.
