That works. Or:

* Put the ISO on another machine, and install via NFS (fastest), HTTP
  or FTP. Properly set up, this works very nicely with kickstart.

* Buy a USB clam shell and put a DVD drive in it. Yes, I know, we're
  all allergic to spending money. I even used this trick to install on
  my ancient laptop with USB 1.1 on it. Slow but it works.

* Use a live CD to install, then use the network to go from there, via
  either a local or a remote repository.
