I've also tried boot.img.gz. Is it enough to perform network install? No additional ISO needed? And is there a way to use WiFi during this installation or only variant is to use wired connection?

@Silver_Ghost, yes, it is enough to perform network install. That is the appeal of this method - (plus nowadays network access is often faster than cdrom access). I am not sure about wireless support (never tried it) - using the wire is of course the best supported way - for wireless see e.g. geofft.mit.edu/blog/post/109 - but it may get complicated when you want to use WPA, have exotic wireless hardware etc.
