Accidentally removed important packages

[Itamar Reis Peixoto]

you don't want chroot to the old filesystem because you dont have rpm 
installed

first read the rpm manual

and install rpm and yum with something like this

rpm -Uvh --force --nodeps --root=/mnt/xyz http://mirror.fedora/yum.rpm 
http://mirror.fedora/rpm.rpm  http://mirror.fedora/grub.rpm etc...
