Hello,

I made a mistake while modifying my /etc/rc.conf. I forgot to
put the terminating quote for a string. Now, my machine fails to boot
correctly. Upon boot, it gives me an option to launch a shell to
correct the problem. Interestingly, / is mounted as read-only and so
I cannot correct /etc/rc.conf. Please help.

regards,
Rohit Grover.
