I made a horrible typo after I finished configuring the TS-7800 I have.  I was finally ready to make it boot directly into the onboard flash and accidentally failed to type one little space when I entered this:

ln -sf /linuxrc-mtdroot/linuxrc; save

Now the thing just hangs at boot.  Is there any possible way (other than obtaining a new chip) to interrupt the boot process before it hangs when it tries to use the 'missing link'?

In fact, I'm confused as to why that would make it hang, since the original linuxrc file should still be there.  The existence of the unnamed link killed it?  Or maybe the save just didn't work?

Whatever happened, I'm dead-in-the-water and (this time) have no one to blame but myself ... I hope.  Can (and will) anyone offer assistance?
