This normally happens because you did a "cd" into the mount point of
the CD to proceed with the installation.
just following the following.
do the mount as instructed by Oracle.
DO NOT cd on to the mount point.
run the installer by issuing the command with the full pathname
/"path_to_installer"/runInstaller
If you have enough space on HD it is better if you copy the whole sets of CD's into the HD and then install from there.
