I thought maybe if I already have an earlier version of Fedora installed, I could somehow interrupt grub and "point it" at the area of my disk that has the installation ISOs. Then no media required.


You will still need a boot CD with the iso files installed. The iso files are raw images of what the CD will be so they have to be mounted by the boot cd to be usable.

You can probably save the iso files to either a fat32 or an ext3 partition that will not be part of the install and boot from the cd using askmethod as described in earlier postings. You will select install from hard drive and then enter the /dev/partition from either a pulldown menu or need to type in the device locations. If you put the iso files in a directory, you will need to enter that information also.

There should be some documentation somewhere as to how to install from hard drive. The organization of the installer was self explanatory for me but it may not be obvious to another person.
