Run the installer from the command prompt, not by clicking on any icons.
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.
