I messed up a cronjob on my ESXi system that is now putting it into a boot loop. I am familiar with recovering a Linux system through mounting and editing the files, but I can't figure out how to do that for ESXi. I created the cronjob through a script in /etc/rc.local.. which of the multiple partitions do I have to mount to get that?

ESXi stores its malleable etc files (at least on my system) on the 5th partition (sda5), in a file archive file state.tgz. Unpacking that, then editing the appropriate file, repacking and replacing got me working again.
