Lotus 1-2-3 Install problem: need help

Many months after buying Lotus SmartSuite for OS/2, I finally tried
to install 1-2-3.  (I'm running Warp.)  The installation was going
fine on the first disk.  It started copying files, with a progress
bar showing that 149 files needed to be installed.  After the
progress bar lengthened just a few pixels (maybe 5), a window popped
up asked me to insert the Install Disk.  This was the disk that was
already in the drive!

I tried removing and re-inserting the diskette.  No go.  I tried
inserting the next diskette in the set.  No go.

I looked in the manual and it said there should be 6 disks, and there
were only 5 in my set.  Here is the directory listing of the
diskette:
