run a http server anywhere handy and copy CentOS/5/os/i386/ (or x86_64)
from one of the mirrors to a web directory...
then boot the netinstall off a USB stick and do the network install with
the URL, like ....
http://192.168.2.10/CentOS/5/os/i386/
you can use nfs or ftp instead of http
with a little more work, you can setup a PXE boot server, this requires
a few more steps and is left as an exercise to the reader.
