Are you using an Initial RAMDISK (initrd)? Fedora's UDEV does require
you to boot from an initrd, since /dev will be initially empty.
If you don't want to use an initial ramdisk, boot from the CD into
recovery mode and:
mkdir /a
mount /dev/your_fedora_root_filesystem /a
mknod /a/dev/console c 5 1
mknod /a/dev/null c 1 3
umount /a
reboot
I think that should suffice.
