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: http://www.linux-magazine.com/Issues/2014/167/Rescatux-Rescue-Disk But it does give a good overview. -- Terry Coles -- Next meeting at *new* venue: Bournemouth, Tuesday, 2018-12-04 20:00 Check if you're replying to the list or the author Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk
