Dear List,

I tried editing /etc/rc.conf file in between server hanged . Now the
rc.conf is incomplete. There is a line with incomplete quotes.
So the machine in starting in single user mode  . No editor is working .
when /usr is mounter ee editor is there. But The file could not be edited
and saved since it is read only.

How to overcome this read only mode and edit the file.
