As workaround in my case I found that I can mount USB flash drive
partition as /cdrom and setup will continue:

1. When installer report "Try mounting the CD-ROM?" select "<No>", then 
"<Continue>".
2. Then in "[?] Ubuntu installer main menu" select "Execute shell", then 
"<Continue>".
3. Mount flash drive partition as /cdrom, in my case it was /dev/sda1:

mount /dev/sda1 /cdrom

4. Exit shell by entering

exit

5. Select "Detect and mount CD-ROM" in appeared "[?] Ubuntu installer
main menu" --- installation will continue.
