What I did (for installing Solaris 9 x86, running QEMU in Linux), was at the 
point of changing discs, do CTRL-ALT-2, type 'eject cdrom', change the discs, 
then do 'change cdrom /dev/scd1'

Of course, replace /dev/scd1 with the actual location of your CD-ROM drive.

Then, press CTRL-ALT-1 to get back to the installation screen.
