I download a big file of .Net 3.5 SP1 from http://download.microsoft.com/download/2/0/e/20e90413-712f-438c-988e-fdaa79a8ac3d/dotnetfx35.exe

Now when I try to install it on Windows Server 2012, I get the following screenshot:

enter image description here

What the?? When will the microsoft learn?

Now this is a loop. When I try to install from Server Manager, I get installation cannot be done. It needs installation disk.

Does that mean I can't install at all without the installation disk in presence?
