You will still have to download the ISO's for a hard drive install.
The only real advantage is that you avoid burning the iso's to cd's,
and the feeding and reading of the cd's during the upgrade. You'll
need to be able to access the hard drive, of course, either locally or
remotely.
I tried to do a hard drive install, and ended up burning CDs anyway.
Although one is supposed to be able to put the .iso's on a FAT32 volume,
the installer seems only to allow paths starting with, umm, some unix path
like /foo/bar/, as anything I typed had that path prefixed to it in the
error message, so it seems to be impossible to refer to my C: drive.
