I don't follow you at all; You are evidently even having trouble
on your existing F!3 (or F14), exactly how I don't understand.
You do need a working linux to do the hdinstall.

--you are evidently not using a grub.conf
  but rather running grub from the cmdline,
  which in my opinion just further makes it likely to make errors.

--you are evidently using a kickstart ks.cfg,
  about which I know nothing,
  but ks.cfg is  not used in the Horsley prescription

--why are you using the 'find' cmd in grub?
  You should know _exactly_ where you put the vmlinuz,initrd.img files
  extracted from the iso.
  And that info should be easily placed into a grub.conf stanza.
  You can also rename those files to vmlinuz-install, initrd.img-install
  which is recommended in the fedora project info,
  and  which makes clear that they are intended for an "install" stanza,
not to be confused with normal vmlinuz,....
