Yep, you probably have a older install.pl in
zshare/dosbin

the repeating is prevented by setting a file flag in 
doit.bat.
doit.bat is the file that dosemu runs.
 
This is what doit.bat contains:
----
IF EXIST c:\netinst\1569087.tmp EXITEMU
format /z:seriously /q /u /a /v: c: /y
if errorlevel 1 exit 1
xcopy /s /e /y Y:\ C:\
Z:
cd Z:\os\winxpsp2\i386
winnt /rx:lang /s:Z:\os\winxpsp2\i386 /u:C:\netinst\unattend.txt
----

the noCycling-flag file part of doit.bat is created by install.pl in this 
section:
----
# Batch script to run after this script exits.
my $doit = "$netinst\\doit.bat";
if($is_linux) {
        # xcopy will copy a file that will prevent a cycling of DOSemu
        # this is tested as the first command
        # The filename itself
        my $noCycling = "$netinst\\" . int(rand(10000000)) . ".tmp";
    # First of all, if the checkpoint file exist, leave DOSEmu
    unshift @doit_cmds, "IF EXIST $noCycling EXITEMU";
    push @doit_cmds, 'xcopy /s /e /y Y:\\ C:\\';
    # have the XCOPY command copy over the checkpoint file
    write_file($noCycling, 'prevent cycling of DOSemu');
}
----

So check that this section is in zshare/dosbin/install.pl
