    Moreover. I have a 1.8 GB USB. Is it possible to burn this 2.9 GB iso on this 1.8 GB USB (by deleting some extra files)?

    Fastest option for installing would be to get the harddisc of that PC and put in another with a DVD drive.
    Do the install there, then change the harddisc back.

    And no, you cannot trim down 2.9GB to 1.8GB.

    Is there a single CD version of Fedora?
    I will download the other packages from internet.

    I've installed ubuntu from hard disk on a system with linux already installed. It isn't that difficult to configure. I would suggest googling for something like install fedora from hard disk
