Tim:
Which is it, FC 7 or 8? The subject description is different from the message, and which one you're actually doing might be able to pinpoint the problem.
Craig White :
solution the same either way.
I'd have thought so, but I was asking in case there was some bug in the newest install routine.
copy iso to system that has httpd running, loop mount in /var/www/html path somewhere...good to go.
mkdir /var/www/html/FC8 mount -t iso /tmp/F-8-x86_64-DVD.iso /var/www/html/FC8
linux method=http://MY_WEB_SERVER/FC8/disc1
It occurred to me that you could have some SELinux issues from that sort of thing, if the contexts aren't in place to allow HTTP serving of those files.
I did a network install of FC7 ages ago, but I can't recall what protocol I used. Whichever technique it was, I would have copied the files to a directory, I didn't use a loop mount, or serve out the ISO.
