Hard drive installs from ISO images are already supported.  I would guess
the part that is missing is mounting the external drive.

Some bugzilla searching turns up:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=118027
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=117650

It looks like using passing "expert" to the installer might get you there.
