How are you going to retrieve files from the inside of a iso image without mounting via loopback. There might be something that can retrieve files from the inside of iso image, but why add the complexity. KISS, just mount the iso via loopback and be done with it.
If you have the CD ISO images you can put them in a directory, export that directory and use it to install. Anaconda does the loopback mount itself on the client. With the DVD ISO, it appears that the loopback mount has to be done on the server, and the resulting filesystem exported. So the question is, why can't anaconda loopback mount the DVD ISO on the client just like it does with the CD ISOs?
