has some tips you might try.  Did you check there?
Also, what version is your Rosetta Stone?

I think your best bet is simulate the cd-rom better, i.e.
copy the iso image (not the files) to the memory
stick, then do a loopback readonly mount of the image onto /media/cdrom.
e.g. mount -o ro,loop /media/usbkey/foo.iso /media/cdrom
(You probably want to write a little shell script to do this.)

And then make sure Wine notices the new 'drive', and install from there.

Let me know if I'm talking too fast :-)
