Edit the /etc/ld.so.conf & now cannot boot

The system can't initialize and boot anymore. How can I recover from that.

I know I need to unedit that /etc/ld.so.conf file.

thanks

It should be able to boot in single users mode, as most of the programs that are needed for runlevel 1, are statically compiled.

If you have a livedistro cd laying around you can use that to boot up your system and make changes to ld.so.conf
