Mount the DVD on the computer you wish to host the files, then set up an
FTP server or so, and point a netinst CD at that directory...

mount -t iso9660 -o loop /path/to/iso /ftp

I recommend vsftp for FTP server.

Netinst can be gotten from here:
http://mirror.stanford.edu/fedora/linux/releases/9/Fedora/x86_64/iso/Fedora-9-x86_64-netinst.iso

(of course, change both instances of x86_64 to i386 or ppc depending on
your needs)

Then just point the installer at the path to the resulting /os folder on
the server where the DVD is mounted.
