    Well, don't know if you've already downloaded it or not, but for FC6 
it's FC-6-i386-rescuecd.iso available on any FC mirror site.  Burn that 
to a disc and you've got yourself a rescue disc that will allow you to 
boot your system up from it, mount your drive and go to town.  That same 
disc also allows you to run the installer in case all you want to do is 
wipe the system clean and re-install.  That's what I use when installing 
new machines (as opposed to configuring grub on an already running 
system to install a new FC version.)
