It would seem from your description that the install scenario should be 
as follows:

1) Select a set of packages.
2) Advise as to which CDs are required for the install
2a) Give user option to return to selection criteria
2b) Don't alter the disk until the user accepts the install scenario
3) Follow the computed install script

Are you complaining that step 2a didn't exist or are you complaining 
that after step 3 starts there is no turning back.
