Get the latest kernel for fedora 6 and then get it installed by some one who have physical access to the system. You might need to install it using some USB disk or cd/dvd.
The latest kernel might help you in getting the driver for the NIC.
Download the Linux driver for kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x (support x86 and x64) r1000_v1.05.tgz package extract and follow the instructions in the README file.
