RFE: Ability to import Fedora netinst iso about cobbler HOT 3 OPEN

@opoplawski Would you agree that this is a duplicate of #2623? If not I would be interested in what differentiates this request from the other one.

from cobbler.

So #2623 if you include #2623 (comment) would be a superset of this request. However, I'm not sure how useful a really large "recognize everything" issue is. Different ISOs may require different handling and different approaches. Personally I would suggest having separate issues for each type with it's own use case and justification.

While looking to see if it would be possible to recognize the Fedora netinst ISO for what it is, I did find this:

/EFI/BOOT/grub.cfg:

menuentry 'Install Fedora 39' --class fedora --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
        linuxefi /images/pxeboot/vmlinuz inst.stage2=hd:LABEL=Fedora-E-dvd-x86_64-39 quiet
        initrdefi /images/pxeboot/initrd.img
}

So we would need to parse that file.

from cobbler.

Okay that file seems reasonable but that file doesn't indicate that this is a netinstall ISO. We just see that this image is a fedora 39 image which should be recognized already if the correspondig signature file is updated and it is a full DVD image.
