What I just did was ...
1) You must have a spare partition (not logical volume) of sufficient size to hold my ISO images. For my test, it's mount point was '/iso'
2) Copy the Fedora-10-ppc-DVD.iso into /iso/
3) Extract the "install.img" file from the DVD into '/iso/images/install.img'
$ mount -o loop /iso/dvd/Fedora-10-ppc-DVD.iso /mnt
$ mkdir /iso/dvd/images
$ cp -a /mnt/images/install.img /iso/dvd/images/
$ umount /mnt
4) Initiate install (boot from network, boot off of DVD, boot off of boot.iso)
5) Choose a language and keyboard
6) Select "Hard drive"
+----+ Installation Method +----+
| |
| What type of media contains |

| Hard drive |
| NFS directory |
| URL |
| |
| +----+ +------+ |
| | OK | | Back | |
| +----+ +------+ |
| |

7) Select the partition and directory containing the DVD iso
+-------------------+ Select Partition +--------------------+
| |
| What partition and directory on that partition holds |
| the installation image for Fedora? If you don't see |

| configure additional devices. |

| /dev/sda1 |
| /dev/sda2 |
| /dev/sda3 |
