Virtual box not finding a 2nd ISO file


I am trying to install Oracle Enterprise R5 on virtual box.

I have downloaded the files as 5 .iso files and I can start the process of installing it (I have NOT burned it a CD).
However I can only see the first .iso file when it asks for the 2nd one it can not find.

It seems that I can only attach one iso file at a time. However I want to attach 5.

When it gets to the point where you need to insert the second CD, you should be able to unmount the first one via Devices --> CD/DVD Devices --> Unmount CD/DVD Device. Then simply point VirtualBox at the second one.

You can have more than one, you just have to edit the vm config and add in multiple cd/dvd rom drives them map one iso to each. I've done two but never tried 5, but unless vb limits to just two virtual ide busses it should work.
