  1. Boot the installation program using any available means (boot.iso, CD, DVD or PXE)
  2. NOTE: If using a CD, DVD or boot.iso, you must also direct the installer to use an FTP installation source by adding the askmethod boot argument.
  3. When prompted, choose to perform a URL install
  4. Enter the URL to your FTP installation source. For example, you might enter ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/i386/os
  5. Proceed with the installation

Expected Results

  1. Anaconda uses the images/install.img from the FTP server provided
