Macbook pro boot with kernel panic - can't perform kext scan

I was trying to swap command and option key for my external keyboard following the instruction in http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20110529094802391.

When I'm done with change and I restarted, my mac booted with Kernel panic message. I'm sure I've messed the info.plist file. Now I cannot boot in safe mode as well.

I know if I get a way to change the file it should be fine.

The message shown in screen is


panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff80002c4794): Kernel trap at 0xffffff80005eae1e, type 14=page fault, registers: ...

Debugger called: <panic>

I boot me machine with the startup disk that came with the mac. I had backup copy of the file and using terminal, I replaced the file and I'm now able to boot normally.
