Pick another distro of your choice, download/burn the iso, boot off of it, install, making sure to erase all existing partitions in the process. If you're more paranoid than that and want to ensure that the data totally, completely erased - so much so that a forensic investigator couldn't recover it - then check out DBAN.

  • You're looking to completely re-install, correct? If so, I'm not sure there's a good way of doing that without some way of booting another OS (in this case, the livecd). Lemme guess, this is a dedicated server somewhere that you don't have physical access to. Do you have access to any remote management tools or LOM cards on this server?
