Should already be supported, though real testing as well as documentation
might not be done yet. We welcome any patches or testing of course. :-)

P.S.: Searching for mount also gives:
mkdir -p $CD1MOUNTP $CD2MOUNTP /mnt/source/CD1 /mnt/source/CD2
mount -t ext2 /dev/$ISO1DASD $CD1MOUNTP >/dev/null 2>&1
mount -t iso9660 -o loop $CD1MOUNTP/$ISO1 /mnt/source/CD1
test -d /mnt/source/CD1/RedHat/RPMS || {
umount /mnt/source/CD1 >/dev/null 2>&1
umount $CD1MOUNTP >/dev/null 2>&1
rm -rf $CD1MOUNTP $CD2MOUNTP /mnt/source/CD? >/dev/null
abortinstall "No Red Hat directory structure found on CD image 1."
}
if [ "$ISO1DASD" != "$ISO2DASD" ]; then
mount -t ext2 /dev/$ISO2DASD $CD2MOUNTP >/dev/null 2>&1
fi
mount -t iso9660 -o loop $CD2MOUNTP/$ISO2 /mnt/source/CD2
