Unhappy installing fedora without a cd/dvd drive.


hi i need some help because I'm a linux
OK here is the problem concerning the installation of fedora core 6/7. I had some one recommend fedora core 7 to me and I would like to try it. my only problem is that my laptop's Cd/dvd drive doesn't work. i have a reasonably fast internet connection so downloading it is a simple matter. but i can't install it with out using the dvd/cd drive. i heard that there is away to hack grub so that it runs from a .ISO image. if so can some one please tell how to do it.

many thanks

PS I have latest debian distro installed on the laptop. i installed it 2 days a go so there are no files important files on the laptop, they are still on the other computer.
