I guess so.
I thought netinstall would give me the usual option
of getting the distribution from the hard disk, NFS, etc.
I know one can do that by copying vmlinuz, initrd, etc
from the DVD to the target machine (running an old version of Fedora)
and adding a stanza to grub.conf -
but a CD or similar package that would do everything required
might be useful?
