Comment (by pulkomandy):
After checking installer code, not allowing install from ISO is by design.
Installing from an ISO (not mounted with the attribute overlay) would most
likely fail, as it would lost all FS attributes.
Suggested change for the other problem: Installer should check for an
haiku or haiku_loader package. If there is none on the source disk, then
it should be removed from the acceptable sources (or shown but disabled,
that makes it clear it is not possible to install from it).
