Look, if you have a working grub2 then you can boot the iso from the HD.
I've been booting it many times the F17 Xfce spin so I could compare with my F17 Xfce install.
Follow the guide at http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=278732
(basically the first post but you need to use /isolinux/ instead of /EFI/boot/ as described in the third post).
I haven't tried installing by this method but I would think that if you put the ISO in a separate partition then maybe you would have no problem installing it to a different partition.
