You can always enter single user mode by typing
init 1
at the command line.
once you get there, kill -15 any processes still left over, which might
access stuff you don't want to have accessed.

I'm not sure about the kernel startup parameters, I haven't monkeys
around with that stuff much, recently.

Best regards,
Chris
