He booted off the knoppix live CD (which has USB support), plugged in the USB DVD drive, put in the DVD he wanted to install from, then ran kexec under knoppix to boot up the /isolinux vmlinuz and initrd.img files, so he didn't even need to fool with grub. It actually worked, so now we have an easy way to install on all the old boxes at work with no USB support in the BIOS by just carrying around the USB DVD drive. (Does the fedora live CD have kexec and USB drivers? I haven't looked, might work with fedora live CD instead of knoppix).
