I don't think you can mount iso images for an install on the same machine, now if the iso's are in a different linux machine you can mount those images, copy the files to the hard disk, and nfs share those files, that's the way I setup network installs when I have iso files.
If you mounted the iso and nfs shared it I'd expect you to have problems when it's time for disk2, and 3. Maybe boot the pc into rh rescue mode, mount and extract the files from the iso's and then use a hard disk install. I guess that depends on what filesystems are currently on your disk.
