Cannot figure out how to revert back to backed up profile file

Cannot figure out how to revert back to backed up profile file

Basically, I made a backup copy of my /etc/profile (or ~/.profile I can't
remember exactly} file that executes as soon as you login to tty, and then
I changed the one that was there, and now it automatically logs you out as
soon as you login. I just need to view the current file and make a
modification to the script, but I can't figure out a way to get to it.
i've tried a ubuntu live cd but I can't figure out how to get permission
after I mount the drive
I have grub installed but I removed all of the options except the default
from the menu
