Re: Installing Fedora from a NFS server.

Make sure you have all 4 isos exported.  I only have the first 3 because
that's all I ever need.  The installer checks for all 4 whether you need
them or not. (bug?)  To get around this, you can mount the isos and copy
the files to your exported directory.

If you don't have a cdrom drive, and you're doing an upgrade, it's
possible to mount the install image, copy the files to somewhere in
/boot, add it to grub.conf as "Fedora Core 2 Installer", reboot, choose
the new option.  The install will start from the hard drive.
