Simplest way is to put the DVD iso image on a hard disk partition
which will remain intact during the install of F7, and make a CD
from the boot.iso file found in images/boot.io on the DVD, then
boot that CD and when it asks how to install, point it at the
DVD iso image on the hard disk.

An alternate technique that doesn't even need a CD drive (since you
already have a working F5 or F6) is to copy the initrd.img and
vmlinuz files from the isolinux directory on the DVD image into
your /boot directory on the system you are upgrading, and make
a /boot/grub/grub.conf entry to boot the vmlinuz kernel with
the initrd.img image. Reboot your system, choose that kernel, and
the installer will start and you can point it to the DVD iso
image just as above.

If you have another computer, you can probably put the DVD image
on it and do a network install rather than a hard disk install
(put you'll need to properly setup HTTP, FTP, or NFS access to it,
so it gets a bit more complex).
