Just knowing that you want to install off of an .iso doesn't tell us enough; depending on what results you want, there may be a better way. In your case, however, it looks like you simply want to learn how to do it because it looks like it should be possible. OK, fine. Now we know that there's not some odd bit of hardware you're trying to work around or something. Good luck!
No, the question is Why must we do it? ;) Why must we use a disc when
install from a file is feasible, it's a pity that Fedora lacks this feature

Please Joe, if you don't know the answer to my question don't try to be sarcastic, thanks Edward for your useful answer!. I always addressed with respect. And you say "we" who are "we/us"? Why don't limit to say "I/me"? I've said that it could be nice not have to burn a disc to install freshly a new release, it's no so hare-brained what I'm asking. Many distros can do that. Also as it was mentioned in a earlier thread, optical disc are going to be less and less ubiquitous. The another alternatives are:
1) Depend on stable and high bandwidth (do you now that in many countries it's a problem?)
2) Depend on another device (eg usb stick)
3) Something crazy as PXE
4) Download a large DVD iso (and use fedup)
So the idea is that it could be handy can't Fedora users install using a somewhat small iso, boot from it and install the new release.
Further sarcastic answer will be sent do /dev/null
Greetings
