You are choosing the wrong type of install. When you start from the Windows disc, you can only make a clean install of Windows. When Windows asks you what type of install you want to do, choose "Custom (advanced)" and then, install Windows on the "BOOTCAMP" partition. I highly recommend you to follow the official steps to install Windows 8 > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.8.pdf
