Didn't the first DVD install offered for Fedora (or Red Hat Linux?) work that way? With the DVD being several CD ISO files and the extra bits necessary to install from them. At least, I seem to recall someone writing instructions somewhere for creating a DVD install that worked like that (download the ISOs, burn them to the DVD as just ISO files, etc.). -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
