Loop mount the ISO image files inside the FTP server tree, to be
accessible when you contact the FTP server.
mount -t iso9660 -o loop FC2-i386-disc1.iso /path/to/ftp/pub_dir
Then start the network installation pointing to your FTP server. See
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/install-guide/s1-begininstall-ftp.html
Change the mounted ISO image file when the install process needs to
access a different CD image.
