How can I edit /etc/modules if Debian hangs at startup?

Hey guys:
I find Debian Unstable hangs after I append "ndiswrapper" to /etc/modules to enable wireless on my laptop. The system startup stops at "Common Unix Printing System: cupspnp parport has been registered" before login prompt.

Now I simply want to change it back, i.e deleting that ndiswrapper line. What can I do? Thanks

Boot a live CD and edit your Debian /etc/modules from the live CD.

To jailbait:
Problem is solved by starting up in single user mode. Thanks anyway.
