Try booting into a Live disc and editing the file by mounting it from there.

In addition there are a number of Rescue CDs out there - have a look at:

System Rescue CD - http://www.system-rescue-cd.org/
Rescutux - https://www.supergrubdisk.org/rescatux/
Boot Repair - https://sourceforge.net/p/boot-repair/home/Home/

This article is a bit old now:

But it does give a good overview.
