I'm not a fedora user, but yes, rescue mode off the cd should give you
access to the disks you need - assuming your issues isn't something
like 2 master HD's on one IDE channel. Once you are in rescue mode,
you should be able to mount /dev/hda2 to something like /mnt/root (you
might have to mkdir /mnt/root first). Once mounted, edit
/mnt/root/etc/fstab to as needed with your editor of choice.
Make sure that hda isn't hdb (or c or d) after adding the other disk
and that your bios is trying to boot off the correct HD. HTH.
