Once you booted the system with the Fedora CD with the Rescue mode, you
should be able to cd into the boot directory and do it from there. I had
to do it that way on several occasions, and it worked by doing this.
It's a little hard to explain, unless I go through the same motions. The
readme should point you to the grub website, and the manual there should
point you in the right direction.
