I have to laugh about the part where you can't install off the DVD after the installation. I went through a few tries to figure out a solution.

1st was to set up a web server which pointed to the DVD. That was a hasle and a half... then it hit me... (after hours of playing around with that idea)

file://

The fedora DVD is set up with the same structure as the mirrors. So just chnage the baseurl like to have file://media/dvd... whatever and your done.

It was so simple I was hitting myself in the head repeatedly... ;)
