Couldnt stop running the Connection refused command
Hello Sir/Madam,
Its very urgent.... I wrote a script related to running a audio file in rc.local in bootloader... Unfortunately I wrote the script where there isnt an audio file in my system....
The code was like this
#!/bin/sh
songs=(~/music/*/*/*)
total=${#songs[@]}
while true
do
song=${songs[$RANDOM%$total]}
oggdec "$song" -o- | aplay -q
done
Since this file wasn't present in my system... When I rebooted the system, this program started running.... I couldn't stop the screen running the error "Connection refused" and that "No audio file present"... Moreover i couldnt enter into the terminal.... Please do help me... Its very urgent... I am running out of time....
I tried every command but nothing has gone well till this moment....

oggdec "$song" -o- | aplay -q # are all files in ogg format?

You also need to put the script in the background when run from rc.local: /full/path/to/name.of.script &

Boot into runlevel 1 (or rescue mode) and fix the rc.local script from there.
