You can use the install floppies; simply answer "n" when it asks if you'd 
like to install, or hit Ctrl-C any time before it says "this is your last 
chance!".  You'll get a shell prompt and all of the basic utilities to 
get the job done are there.

Make sure you fsck your partitions, and do *not* specify the -y flag if 
you are paranoid.  (I would be.)

It seems kinda silly that you send mail out with an address that you know 
is bogus...
