Sorry for the late answer since you probably have already gotten past
your predicament. If you havene't here is what I would do: keep
the computer running that you are trying to upgrade and see if you
can network it to another computer. Then copy all the files you really
need to the second computer. Once that is done, do a new install from
known good set of FC3 disks, then move the vital files back to it that
went to your "backup" machine. That should do it.
