Network install has existed for every release of Fedora and many years before that for Red Hat Linux. Refer to the installation guide before complaining that the feature doesnt exist

Network install overdue Posted Mar 17, 2006 13:26 UTC (Fri) by hppnq (guest, #14462) [Link] Please check Fedora's download instructions, under the header "Download the files you need" there are four ISOs.Yes, it has been possible to install systems over a network for years, but as far as I know you will still have to download the images first, so you can set up a repository. ;-)

Incorrect. For example, FC4 has boot and rescue images in this folder
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4...
The boot image is just 6 MB.

Yes, I know that it is possible. But the bandwidth waste is because people follow directions.

The directions are specified in the installation guide. So if you follow directions, you already know of many Anaconda capabalities.
