Boot off of the cd38.iso, mount your / partition and remove your /etc/boot.conf is the first way that comes to mind.
You could also work some magic with the boot prompt that you get from booting off the CD. Something like boot -s hd0a:/bsd should do it and I'm sure I could find a half dozen other ways to do it if i really wanted in. In other words, just adding "boot" to your boot.conf does not really add any security. It does make your life more difficult when you actually need to access single user mode, but without physical security, nothing is secure.
