Where did you find the boot.iso?
E.g. here:
http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/11/Fedora/i386/os/images/.
Then install with the "askmethod" option (easiest, it seems to me).
It would make more sense if boot.iso were with the other ISO files, but
it's not.

You mean the procedure that's described here:

?
Yes, that one, more or less. I think I had to futz around with it a bit
to get it to work, but eventually it did.
BTW, it makes for a much faster install than from DVD, so if you have a
few machines to do, it's a nice method, even if they do have a DVD
drive---though the fastest, in my experience, is NFS.
