Just run mount with no options to see how root is mounted already. You should be able to boot from a CD and mount the filesystem and just directly edit sudoers safely. Are you using LVM? If so, you might need to first do a pvscan/lvscan/lvchange to get the devices to show up. If you're using raid you might need to do an mdadm -As as well before that.
