[CentOS] Screwed up my iptables firewall

Have you tried to reboot it into single user mode and just doing an iptables -F to flush out all the rules?

 
| I have a server that I screwed up iptables on. Now when the server
| restarts it locks up trying to apply the firewall rules. 
| 
| How can I remove the rules (set to all ACCEPT) in a linux rescue mode or
| knoppix or other way of getting to the file system? 
| 
| Any suggestions how to fix this?
| 
| Thanks,
| James
