Take a look here to start. You create a mount point and then mount the iso and then you can use nfs and linux askmethod to install. You will need at least the first cd to boot the machine you want to install on and initiate the linux askmethod. google nfs, linux askmethod, unofficial fedorfaq

You need a FTP or HTTP server installed on a machine on your LAN. Unpack all the files from the FC5 ISO to a directory on the server, then follow the install guide (http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/fedora-install-guide-en/fc5/sn-before-begin.html#sn-installing-networkinstallation).
