Your best option is to boot off the CD or the network into single user
mode and then mount the disk and replace whatever the bad entry is. I
would recommend taking care if the disk was mirrored, but it appears
that it is not, so do not worry.

Please note, this is hand typed and there may be some typos in it.

ok> boot cdrom -s
password:
#mount /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s2 /mnt
#edit /etc/vfstab
do stuff here
#umount /mnt
#sync
#init 6

I hope this helps.
