Urgent help needed - Debian boot hangs



Hi,

urgent help needed. After adding an iptable entry for masquerading my local network and making it permanent with
the package "iptables-persistent" my Debian server doesn't boot any more.
It hangs with the line:
A start job is running for LSB: Raise network interfaces. ( ... /no limit)
The root file system where it boots from is on an Adaptec HW Raid interface, the motherboard is a Asrock.

I habe tried to boot from a live CD (by pressing F11 as the short boot msg of the motherboard suggests), but with no avail,
the boot menue doesn't appear. I don't see the Grub menue, the screen is momentarily blank.
The computer insists on booting from the Adaptec.

Is there any chance to interrupt the booting process? The other command windows (Alt-F2 .. Alt-F6) show only the line
A start job is running for LSB: Raise network interfaces. ( ... /no limit)

Kind regards,
Hans
