You should be able to use Control-Alt-F1 to switch to a linux console, if
you want that.

Before I try that, let's try this.

I just looked at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=236817 .  It
seems that you should be able to

$ sudo apt-cdrom add

and add the CD as a repository.  After that, you may be able to

$ sudo apt-get install build-essential

(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=3642 seems to indicate that the
above line is way to get all the development tools.)

If the above doesn't work, try rebooting your machine into the install CD
and get to the point of package installation and try to select
"build-essential" from there.

Tell me how it goes.
