Ah, the installation guide does say that - my curiosity is going to
kill me about this now though and I'll have to do some
experimentation.
Needing the iso images may still not be a deal breaker depending on
what exactly is needed for the install. I'm a bit afraid that
installing from a usb stick may take about a week to actually do
though as my experience with RHEL and USB sticks/disks has not been
very good.
