Basic daemon question
Howdy,
I just recently finished a fresh install of Arch and am planning to use KDE. Like an idiot, I put the kdm daemon into rc.conf but forgot to list hal. What can I do to edit rc.conf given that my keyboard and mouse stop working as soon as kdm is launched?

Add '1' as a boot parameter, edit rc.conf, reboot

Re: Basic daemon question
press ctrl+alt+f1 (f1-f7). you will come to a tty screen. there you can edit rc.conf. if that doesn't work, then you can always get a live cd and edit rc.conf as root.
