So in general as you seem to be alright with re-installing Linux and in case there is another catastrophe you already know how to re-install the windows bootloader, I recommend you re-do the Linux install but definitely DO choose to install grub on the MBR. Here's a post describing symptoms similar to yours, making me suspect you may have originally chosen not to install grub on the MBR: http://www.lilug.org/pipermail/2003-October/010690.html . Also, apart from the fact that you had to use a boot floppy it's not clear what problems you actually had AFTER you managed to boot into Fedora. If there weren't any to speak of then I think all you were missing is not installing grub on the MBR. If there were other serious problems even after you booted into linux with a floppy (besides the waste of your entire evening) let us know.
