I actually had the same problem.  The machine I was installing on to had a
plain CD-ROM drive.  I used an external USB drive to burn CDRW's. I could
mount and read the CDRW's I burned in the drive just fine but for some
reason the install didn't like them.  I replaced the drive with an old
CDRW drive and the problem went away.  I have no explanation why the
install didn't like my CDRW's or even a guess but I had a work around.
