    Rescue Mode on Fedora 13 x64 LiveCD

    This is probably a stupid question, but is there a way of booting into rescue mode (linux rescue) from the Fedora 13 x64 LiveCD? I tried typing it in at the GRUB menu but it just reloaded the menu. I need it to resize the LVM partition as I want to dual-boot. Alternatively, is there a small rescue mode ISO I could download? (I have a bandwidth limit at uni so can't really download anything bigger than a CD.)

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I hear, but I don't know, that the live CD's don't include rescue mode. If it was there it would be part of any menu that you see when you boot with the CD. You will likely need a copy of a Fedora install DVD or CD 1 to be able to avail yourself of Rescue Mode.

    Thanks. I was fearing that might be the case. As I said, I can't download the install DVD due to my bandwidth limit here at uni. Where is this 'CD 1'? All I can see on the official website are installable live CDs. Or is there some kind of 'rescue mode' ISO I could download?

    Thanks again. I used the ~220MB "netinst" one in the end.
