Indeed so but the crucial difference is the extra "/" in the path definition
at "sdc5:/iso-images" in the kernel line.... in all past versions of Fedora
doing something similar required the path relative to the top of the
partition to not start with a "/" - now this is needed for the first time. 
Previously in F9 and earlier this would instead have had "sdc5:iso-images"
or when choosing the HD install from the graphical menu and entering the
partition as /dev/sdc5 at the top and then tabbing down to the path you
would previously have entered "iso-images/Fedora-10-x86_64-DVD" now the
leading "/" is essential.

I have added a comment to the bz at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=473351

In addition this looks related to the reports of issues with NFS installs
where the file images/install.img could not be found?
