I have a friend that was working on ldap and thought he had everything setup but it is not authenticating so now he needs to go back to pam. The problem is he is locked out of the system. What is the best approach for him to take to be able to log back in and modify
/etc/pam.d/common-auh.conf /etc/pam.d/common-account.conf /etc/pam.d/common-password.conf /etc/pam.d/common-session.conf

This will bypass the init system, boot straight to a shell with / mounted read-write.
