Dump the isos to a partition -- I have one usually called /iso for this
purpose -- and burn the rescue cd image.  (or try sticking that on a USB
key.  I have one, work-necessary, key, so I haven't tried this.)

Then use 'linux askmethod' and 'hard drive' for the install.

Saves on CDs something considerable, especially if the rescue image (or,
historically, the first CD) is going on a rewritable.
