My solution when disk swapping became a problem was to copy over the first installation disk and the CAB files from the other disks into a directory in Linux and run the install routine through there. It won't elliviate the problem of having to have the game disk in your CD drive, but it will get it installed. It's what I did for Jedi Academy anyway.

Give it a shot.
