Factory CV Joints: Longevity w/o factory oil?

I have one inner boot that has leaked out the oil. I have all new boots for both half shafts inner and outer. I just haven't had the time to get them installed? I have not driven the car since I saw the oil on the shop floor, I am wondering now if it is okay to move it and drive it a short way to get it home... I don't want to have to replace anything other than the boots. I ordered febi units that came with a large tube of molybdenum grease instead of the factory oel. Tips/suggestions?

Ian
