Install from a network share???

[Brian McKee]

You can do a network install of Ubuntu, but you usually still need a boot cd.
It's just a lot smaller and simpler (and better for that 4x drive :-)

Take a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD

or even https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot if you don't mind
mucking about a bunch just to avoid using the cdrom altogether....
