Boot to boot screen, pressing both mouse buttons when powering ON.

Choose boot without startup-sequence.

From shell start Tools/Memacs and edit those failed changes away.

Sorry it is memacs. It is located tools draver. It is a text editor with primitive GUI. You could also use ED wich is shell/cli text editor.

To open your startup sequence to memacs, you need to choose open from menu and type whole path to file sys:s/startup-sequence
