Fedora 8 NFS installation error


G'day. Downloaded Fedora-8-i386-DVD.iso & boot.iso. Burned boot.iso to a CD. Check sum of Fedora-8-i386-DVD.iso matched. Thus proceeded to boot up existing Fedora 6 with Fedora 8 boot CD to start the NFS installation (can't do hardisk installation method because was formatted as LVM). Encountered an error message "that directory does not seem to contain a Fedora installation tree".
I am sure that I defined the NFS ip & folder name correctly!
What can be wrong or did I miss out something?
Thank you in advance for any help & advice.

Sorry to trouble all you folks!
I forgot to change the Access security permissions of Others to Read only!
Now, it's working...
