Funny that Knoppix ruined your boot partition... But anyway, to correct it you could boot using your 1st RedHat cdrom and then use the 'rescue' option or whatever to get a shell. Then, create a mountpoint ('mkdir /blah') and mount your harddisk on this point ('mount /dev/hdaX /blah', where X is the partition with /bin and /etc/ and stuff). Then change the root ('chroot /blah'), mount the boot partition if /boot is on a separate partition and rerun grub. Reboot.
