This has worked for UT2k3 (and many other games with InstallShield installer as well):

I've just copied all files from all CDs into one and the same folder on my harddisk. If a folder/file is on multiple CDs, I allways choose overwrite at the later CD.

At the next step, I install the game from this HD-folder. If the install works fine, I burn this folder to a DVDR.

This way I have backups of most of my games on DVD, can install them unattended (no need to confirm new CD) and have spare place for patches, fixed exes, walkthrougs, maps, AddOns,...
