If you can just point at an ISO, use the Everything boot.iso
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/40/Everything/x86_64/...
If you have a bootloader of some sort, you can download the vmlinuz and initrd.img from here:
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/40/Everything/x86_64/...
… and boot using them, and add the kernel arguments described here:
https://anaconda-installer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/boot-options.html
There are options for setting up the networking, choosing a graphical or text install, and other options.
I’d probably use a kickstart to automate an install, but that’s what I do for my job so it’s my comfort zone.
