That's unexpected, if you boot the DVD with no additional boot
arguments, the only text-mode prompt you should get is whether you want
to validate your media.  Do you see any messages on tty3 or tty4 that
might indicate why it's prompting you for an installation source?

Can you file a bug with a screenshot of the SIGSEGV output please?
Sounds like this may impact the iSCSI test case [1] (in text-mode)
