You do not have to use CD's. You can put the iso files in a folder you
can access from the floppy boot disk. Create a boot floppy using rawrite
from CD1. I think the proper image for the floppy is called bootdisk.img
or something like that. Boot from the floppy and select Hard drive
install from teh install options. In Fedora I am sure this now gives a
graphical install. You do not have to extract the contents of the isos.
Pretty nice feature of Redhats install. For more info refer to the
redhat install guide. No need to waste CD's on Beta's.

Just in case you didn't know.
