Since I just went through this, a few pointers:
1. An iso is a CD image. The same way that <path to CD>/RedHat/images/*
are images of a floppy, as one file, or the same way that a tar file
can be a tree.
2. If you intend to do a Net install, DO NOT MOUNT THE .ISO'S!!!
Put all of 'em in one directory (e.g., /mnt/iso). I was finally
successful in installing on my laptop using NSF - I exported
/mnt/iso, and set up DHCP, and NSF, and away we go (make
sure chmod a+r for the .iso's).
