I think it's still handy to have some other media with Fedora on it, probably the rescue one. If you have an accident with an "everything only on your one-and-only hard drive" system, you've got no way to recover from it. -- (This box runs FC7, my others still run FC 4, 5, 6, & CentOS 5.0, in case that's important to the thread.)
