This can occur if you somehow opened a virtual terminal and did a cd to the 
directory on which the CD is mounted. 

One thing you can check is to go onto tty2 (should be ctrl-alt-f2 from the 
installer window). Run the mount command to see if it is still mounted. 

This is a tricky situation because you really have no control yourself.
