        The easiest way is to boot to single user mode: in grub either
choose apropriate menu entry which boots directly into single mode if you have 
it,
otherwise choose any kernel entry and edit line beginning with linux and
append the word 'single'.
        There are other ways: rescue mode from fedora dvd, any live
distribution on usb stick, booting from boot.fedoraproject.org. You may need
to remount root fs:
mount -o remount,ro /
