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.

perhaps if the GNOME Live CD's are moved away from the absolute middle
of the page you might find them

How bout the following?

The Fedora Unity Project is proud to announce the release of new CD 
Spins of Fedora 8. These CD ISOs are based on the Fedora 8 DVD.iso.

The ISO images are available for i386 and x86_64 architectures via
jigdo 
starting Thursday, November 8th, 2007.

We have included CD Image sets for those in the Fedora community that
do 
not have DVD drives or burners available.

The Default install will require the first 3 CDs.

If you are interested in helping with the testing or mirroring efforts, 
please contact the Fedora Unity team.

Contact information is available at http://fedoraunity.org/ or the 
#fedora-unity channel on the Freenode IRC Network (irc.freenode.net).

Go to http://spins.fedoraunity.org/ to get the bits!

To report bugs in the Re-Spins please use http://bugs.fedoraunity.org/

I'm using F8 now.
I installed it via FTP.

I just get the vmlinuz and initrd.img
and use grub to boot it.
Then choose the Local ROM, NET or Hard drive

It is a good thing.

May somebody want to try it. May this help.

BTW: I use the FTP of the ether net in my school, so it is very fast
about 10M/s.
Maybe use other NET will slow. But it should be OK.

My impression is that it is actually easier with F-8 than it was with F-7.

I installed F-8 KDE Live CD on a USB stick,
and when I booted with this, I was asked if I wanted to install F-8;
when I answered yes I was able to install from the hard disk
(where I had the DVD ISO).

I wasn't asked this question when I booted F-7 from a USB stick.

If you are booting from a USB stick, then yes, it has improved.

Ok, Rahul. I was understood but did not understand the response. That is
my fault.
