I tried the NFS install and it worked like a charm. I don't remember the step-by-step, but here are the basics: 1. - mount the dvd iso 2. - export the mounted iso via nfs 3. - boot the target machine ala boot.iso or PXE 4. - select 'NFS' as install type - enter the IP and share path Obviously, you need another *nix machine on the network to host the DVD image, and some way of booting the laptop - floppy, cd, PXE, etc. I used this method with the first CD of centos 5, but unless I'm missing something it should work for a DVD image of F7 as well.
