on the grub splash screen slect the kernel linux
press 'e' to edit it ...you might have to press 'e' twice ..see the messages at bottom
add -s in the end
then 'b' to reboot it in the single user mode it will drop you on the shell
another method is to boot from CD
boot : linux rescue
and press enter
it will also take you to the shell
take care
