You can still install completely from the USB key - you just put the 
diskboot.img on one partition, make it bootable, create a ext2/3 
filesystem on the rest of the key and drop the dvd or cd isos into 
there. Then run a regular install-from-hdd type install, anaconda will 
find and use the isos from the key.
