under some circumstances the installer won't acknowledge the DVD(or image for virtual systems) and can't continue to install. In such a case, start the Live version and install it from there, the option is on the desktop. Or if you are an advanced user, you can enter the shell and take the steps manually, but this won't be covered in this wiki page.
