Mark,

The Anaconda installer Python script is what has (re)mounted the partition at 
/mnt/isolinux, and Anaconda is looking for the next image to load from the 
/images/ directory on the DVD (or ISO). My DVD shows the following candidates:

        boot.iso
        diskboot.img
        minstg2.img  
        stage2.img

Most likely what is missing on the (USB) installation media is either that 
entire directory /images/ or one of the '.img' files.

After formatting the partitions, Anaconda is probably looking for the 
'stage2.img' file to unpack a basic core for the root filesystem so that the 
package manager (rpm)has enough of a filesystem available to put files in.


Cheers!
