Yes, it will bypass the CDROM detection (that's the point!).
Even better, in the case of multiple-CD installations, there are several
environment variables named after the CD name as you choose it in the
setup.xml file : SETUP_CDROM_<id>. For example, if you have 
<cdrom id="blah"> then you can tell setup where it is located by setting
SETUP_CDROM_BLAH ...
