If you are willing to take the system down for a few minutes, try booting with 
a copy of knopix or your gentoo livecd, and doing your filesystem mods that 
way. Then you can be more comfortable with the sanity of your os. after all 
there is so much important stuff in there.

Or maybee drop to single user mode, that may work.

Your responsibility as a parent is not as great as you might imagine.  You
need not supply the world with the next conqueror of disease or major motion
picture star.  If your child simply grows up to be someone who does not use
the word "collectible" as a noun, you can consider yourself an unqualified
success.
