Yup.  You want to use "Grub for NT" to boot the installer.  This
document discusses how:

The document recommends using the isolinux images, though I usually use
the vmlinuz and initrd.img files from images/pxeboot/.  I'm not sure
there's any difference, they're the same size in each directory.

Hard to believe or not, I DON'T have a CD-Drive... i've installed my WinXP a long time ago, and then my CD-ROM drive died...
