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
