How can we install Fedora core 2 / 3 without burning iso images to CD?
I guess you simply want to avoid downloading 2-3GB of ISO images?

Actually there is a way you can install Fedora core without a boot CD or a boot USB device.
First you will need a copy of the boot.iso. then mount it (as root) mount -o loop boot.iso /mnt

This is indeed a useful method but it only works if you can boot into a Linux environment in the first place (e.g. using an existing installation); it doesn't help a first-time installer (but then neither did my earlier suggestion of doing an NFS install).

Agreed, I was assuming the OP was starting with an existing Linux install. Which may or may not be the case.
