Installed a buggy kernel ext. Duh, what do I do now?

[Steve Dyer]

I replaced /etc/nfs.ext with a test version of my own, ignorant
as I was of the baroque rebooting procedure of the RS6000 (not
to mention the bugs in my code!)

OK, it no longer boots, and flashes 888.  Hitting the clear button
once gives 120.  I assume it's crashing in the new module.

All I want to do right now is undo what I've done.  Isn't there
anyway to boot the damn thing single user before the rc scripts
start up, so I can rename the modules?

It isn't at all obvious to me why it was necessary for IBM to completely
redo everything so that the system administration knowledge gleaned by
users over the past 17 years becomes useless.
