Work around -- as simple as it is obvious.  Go to System Settings ->
Software & Updates.  On Other Software tab, deselect cdrom. Then start
Mythbuntu Control Center and, in System Roles, select Ubuntu Software
and Apply.  The Ubuntu Desktop will install from the web.

Title:
  Can't add Ubuntu as system role in Mythbuntu control center

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  New

Bug description:
  Installed Mythbuntu 14.04.2 LTS. In Control Centre, Sytem Roles,
  selected Ubuntu Desktop as Desktop Role & Apply.  The confirmation
  dialog only displays one of two lines of the proposed action.
  Selecting Apply and entering password & selecting Authenticate brings
  up a dialog that says:

  "CD/DVD 'Mythbuntu 14.04.2 LTS _Trusty Tahr_ - Release amd64 (20150218.1)' is required-
  Please insert the above CD/DVD into the drive '/media/cdrom/' to install software packages from it."

  The file is actually named "Mythbuntu 14.04.2 LTS amd64" (downloaded
  today).

  Meanwhile, another dialog "Applying Changes" displays a half-finished
  progress bar with either the word "Donwloading" or "Finished" beneath
  it.  If I insert the installation DVD And select "Continue" in the
  first dialog, the dialog flashes but is not dismissed.  There is no
  problem with the internet connection, and I don't see why the
  installation disk is required (I have another Mythbuntu computer that
  added the Ubuntu Desktop without any problems and without requesting
  an installation disk).

  I should note that I added the Mythbuntu and Myth repositories to the
  updater during installation and downloaded the latest updates.

  This machine is used as a frontend and secondary backend.
  Installation was simple, and I am able to access the primary backend
  without any problems.  I really like this product!
