Nah, when booting to do a hard disk install, I usually just extract
the necessary images from the DVD and make a grub entry pointing
at them with all the boot time parameters I want to define, then
I just reboot and select that grub entry, and anaconda starts up
with all the right options already defined. Much more convenient
that fooling with physical DVDs.
Very practical approach. Reminds me of the kickstart idea.
