Anaconda will read the image file when doing network updates (and probably
HD):

http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/install-guide/s1-begininstall-net.html#S2-BEGININSTALL-SETUPSVR

All one URL.

"Additionally, if a file called updates.img exists in the directory from
which you install, then it will be used for installation program updates.
Refer to the file install-methods.txt in the anaconda RPM package for
detailed information on the various ways to install Red Hat Linux, as well
as how to apply the installation program updates."
