It can be done and if you search the archives on how to build a DVD ISO
I expect you'll get yourself headed in the right direction.

If you have a bunch of these to do, I'd suggest setting up a kickstart
server and doing the installs over the network.  Sure beats swapping
CDs.  I even did my home FC3 install over the network using my RHEL
system to hold the ISOs.  It was surprisingly fast.
