If not, I have no way to install Fedora without assistance from
someone. That would not be good at all.

Have you considered upgrading instead of a fresh install? Some users reported success about a month ago:

Alternatively, you may be able to use koan/cobbler to reinstall your pre-existing system.

I would be more than happy to assist with a VNC install if you can open a port in your firewall (or perhaps a reverse VNC connection is possible), send me a private e-mail if you're interested.

I suggested the SSH alternative because someone can sniff out your entire telnet session (passwords included) if they are on your private network or can poison your router's ARP cache. Is there some functionality/accessibility that the telnet install provided that SSH won't? Maybe that is the best way to address this problem, even if after the F-14 final release...
