It's not that difficult. You need to first locate a F7 mirror and the
/fedora/releases/7/Fedora/i386/os
directory. Put in either the F7 Rescue CD or DVD and enter "linux
askmethod" on the after the system boots. Depending on the URL of the
mirror select either HTTP or FTP and enter the data requested on the
screen. Here's a write up using FC-6 is still applies to F7:

Thanks, Kam, but when I try to run the rescue mode from the F7
installation dvd, I get again the same deadlock problem:

"Loading pata_it821x driver".

Thus, a network install seems not possible here.
