I put the ISO file and images folder in same NFS directory, same as F11 does.

But installer can't find and mount stage2 img.

HD install failed, too.

This seems to get harder with each release--it used to be that you just needed the ISO. I think last time, that I just mounted the DVD and copied it into another directory and mounted that. That is, rather than having the ISO and images in a directory, I had the contents of a DVD in a directory.

There will probably be an installation guide out shortly that will cover whatever one has to do these days. I've never looked too deeply into why this is now the case, but it does seem a regression. When giving it nothing but an ISO used to work, and now doesn't, I would guess that qualifies as regression. I think the change was around F10, but I could be wrong on that.
