If you are setting up an installation tree for NFS, FTP, or HTTP
installations, you need to copy the RELEASE-NOTES files and all files
from
the Fedora directory on discs 1-3. On Linux and Unix systems, the
following process will properly configure the /target/directory on your
server (repeat for each disc):
1. Insert disc
2. mount /mnt/cdrom
3. cp -a /mnt/cdrom/Fedora /target/directory
4. cp /mnt/cdrom/RELEASE-NOTES* /target/directory (Do this only for disc
1)
5. umount /mnt/cdrom
I will read through the docs and see what I can find out, but I am doing
this from the ISO's, not cd's (so this is somewhat diff?). I would
rather not waste creating cd's if I can install from the ISO or create
the files from the ISO's.

you can do what you want:

Yes, I knew that, thanks. But he was only mounting the one ISO and at
first, and I wasn't sure if he was just using it to get started then
using the rest of the ISO's as themselves, or if you had to unpack them
or whatever so *all* files were there and doing the install that way.
