7.3. Text Mode Installationdrive,
You can do a text mode installation of the Live images using the liveinst command in the console.
Clearly I am being misunderstood. I am interested in installing f8 on a machine without a DVD drive. I know there are NFS installs I would rather avoid that.
I don't see where you are misunderstood. You asked whether the Live CD/DVD's are installable and the answer yes and has been from the Fedora 7 release onwards. All the different variants and spins of Fedora have this capability.
You can either click on the desktop icon after booting into it or run liveinst for a text based installer in runlevel 3.
