I worked out a way for the installation cd to eject and replace it with the another one. I do it through 3 self ereasing cmd files & a utility called wineject.

Actually in my case the installation of main os is finished from 1st cd. I have changed the autorun.inf to display a page where I have choices of other CDs that the user may want. Clicking on the selected button will eject the tray, there will be a delay of say 10/12 seconds & then it will retract the tray.

You can then check the volume label of the cd to verify insertion the correct cd. If it is the wrong one it can loop and eject the cd again. As the next step it can either autorun from the cd itself or you can start the next process as per your requirements.

I have posted a part of the code in CDSwitch thread. You can modify it any way you want.
