I have seen this happen a couple of times, and it's because the
detection code in the installer is not working as it's supposed to. It's
based on an environment variable :-)
Log in using /console, start a cmd.exe prompt, run "set
SESSIONNAME=Console", and then start the installer. That should help.
I've added a tracker for this to the foundry page - this needs a fix.
