I've never tried a NFS install not through PXE. However I believe you
have to make a boot disk using the "bootnet.img" image instead of the
"boot.img" image. When booting with that disk you will be asked for a
type of installation. Simply select the NFS one. Note that you have to
have NFS server on the network.

To create the boot disk under Linux, type the following (assuming that
your RedHat cdrom is mounted under "/mnt/cdrom"):
dd if=/mnt/cdrom/images/bootnet.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440k

To create the boot disk under DOS, move to the cdrom directory
"/dosutils" and use the "rawrite" command. Simply type "rawrite" at the
DOS prompt.
