I'm not sure why that wouldn't work for Workstation (or any standard
install of a linux os) as long as the volume isn't encrypted. It doesn't
even have to be a Fedora live image (probably about time to replace "CD"
with "Image"), I could do the same (and used to) with System Rescue CD.

I can't speak to Silverblue...

Looks pretty straight forward but I do which Fedora provided a helper
script to mount the filesystems. I always have to look up what's supposed
to be a "bind" mount or something else once I have /boot and / mounted.
