Win2K clean install

I'm installing Win2K from WinNT, on a laptop, and I've done the proper FDISK'ing and formatting, but I didn't foresee this happening. The laptop can only use a floppy drive or a CD drive, not both, so I have to switch them out. When I go through the process of putting in the 4 boot discs individually, I come to the part where I need to put in the Win2K CD, but I can't switch out the floppy drive for the CD drive because the laptop won't detect the CD drive unless it has rebooted. Any idea on what to do?
