U need the boot floppy as an installation media which u can make from the site download or the dos utiles come with the iso. After that boot from floppy drive at the install promt type this command
install askmethod

It will give u the option of installation from hdd network etc. select the install from hdd and press enter then it will ask for the location of the iso so give it in the form of /hda1/location where hda1 is ur dirve where iso are so change it as required & also the partition should be fat32 as it will not be able to read from NTFS partition ( as i have not check)
Rest is same...............
also u can check the redhat doc on installation it will provide more details..................

i had made a boot floppy by copying the image into floppy using rawwrite, it didnt work for me. I had followed the procedure also which is mentioned along with rawwrite.
