Try booting from that DVD. Your other option will be putting the ISO image on a USB drive using this tool https://unetbootin.github.io/ then booting from the USB drive.
When you boot from either the DVD or USB drive, you will get various options regarding how to partition the space on your hard drive, keyboard settings ...etc
