I tried to install FC5 using the NFS method by copying the Fedora

I had to copy the directory
repodata
too from the DVD root to the target server into the same directory
whereto I copied the Fedora directory.
Otherwise anaconda stops the FC5 install/update with a "repodata not
found" error message.
This README could certainly do with an update. It hasn't been necessary
to "explode" the contents of the ISOs for NFS installs for a long time
now - you can just point the installer at an NFS share directory
containing the ISOs themselves.

Maybe having a nice "1001 ways of installing fedora" how to covering
those kinda topics. like detailed pxe usbpen etc boot/install methods.

Would be helpful, especially for fedora newcomers.
