The easy fix I guess would be to tell the installer you only have 3 or 4 of
the install disks. Let the OS install and then urpmi anything that might be
on the rest of the disks. I know that having all the disks install on the
boot install is preferred but in this case, getting a basic system up and
running and then adding apps from the install disks is probably the way to
go. "reduce and simplify"
Good luck
