I just did it on a machine this morning, but it isn't as easy the
last few releases as it used to be - you have to extract the
images/install.img file, you can't just point it as the iso file
anymore. Here's my notes from the last install:

Use hard disk install technique. Copy these files from mounted DVD:

cd /zooty/salvage/iso-images/Fedora-13-Beta-x86_64-DVD
mkdir mnt
mkdir images
mkdir /boot/f13x
mount -o loop Fedora-13-Beta-x86_64-DVD.iso mnt
cp mnt/images/install.img images/install.img
cp mnt/isolinux/vmlinuz /boot/f13x
cp mnt/isolinux/initrd.img /boot/f13x
umount mnt
rmdir mnt

with this entry in /boot/grub/grub.conf

title Install Fedora 13 Beta x86_64
	root (hd0,8)
	kernel /boot/f13x/vmlinuz repo=hd:LABEL=ZOOTY:/salvage/iso-images/Fedora-13-Beta-x86_64-DVD/
	initrd /boot/f13x/initrd.img

Adjust various paths and partition numbers to match your system...
