There is a subdirectory named images on the dvd, under which you will find boot.iso
You can create a bootable cd from the boot.iso image and use that to install Fedora.

See this tutorial on using k3b. Choose "Burn DVD ISO image" http://www.raiden.net/?cat=2&aid=518
if you don't have k3b do "sudo yum install k3b"

Thank you very much for you help, But now I am getting new problem while installing fedora via virtual box. I allocated space of 16GB for it , and I am installing it from boot.iso as stated earlier. At the time of installation I choose "Remove all linux partition and choose default layout". Checked "review and modifying partitioning layout ". Clicked on next and then clicked on write changes to disk . After selecting drive on which fedora is to be installed , I clicked on next and window is popped up saying "Enable Network Interface". When I click ok it said "exit installer" or "debug". Can't I skip this step. Why I need to be connected to internet. After this I have no other option left but to exit installer.
thank you

Did you burn only the boot.iso image to CDR? The boot.iso image is just that, to boot the system and point the installer to where the bulk of the OS image is. If your intention is to install from CD or DVD media you need to burn the entire Fedora image to DVD. Then use that DVD to install, no network connection needed.
Read the official install docs here http://docs.fedoraproject.org/install-guide/f10/en_US/ In particular read Section 6 "Installation Methods"

You'll need to do some reading, I gave you the link in my previous reply.
If you want to use the files you copied from the dvd to your computer, you first need to create an ISO image and create a dvd off of it. See this http://www.minidvdsoft.com/isocreator/. It allows you to create ISO images from files in a windows PC. On Linux read the k3b manual to do the same. You'll have to read a bit.
Once again: please do not post at the top of the reply. Type your reply at the bottom of the message. Read this http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines Many will find It's very annoying to follow threads like this... and most will not reply to you if you choose to ignore the rules.

The complete set of packages for Fedora won't fit on one DVD. You need about 4 single layer DVDs just for the binary packages for a single arch.

If you want to create a live dvd then read here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraLiveCD/LiveCDHowTo
Take your time to read the references I've given you. If you inform yourself it will enable you to ask better questions.
I saw you created another thread asking the same question -that is not recommended on this list and will not get you any answers. Everyone is seeing your posts and if they don't reply is because they choose not to. Opening another thread will not change anything.

Well, it might change things, but not for the better. By opening another thread asking the same thing, he/she may end up with less people willing to help.
