I have a similar problem. The DVD reader on my laptop is busted. Here's 
an idea that could work. liveusb-creator can create a bootable USB of 
the netinst ISO. The DVD iso can be placed in a folder on the same USB 
and it should be possible to pull it up for installation using the 
Install From HDD option available when the USB boots.
