I answer my own question, since this is more easy & efficient than I
thought, and should help others in many cases!

(0) make sure template-vm is halted.
(1) as dom0 root:
      (a)   fdisk -l path-to-root.img
             Then read off the start sector of ...root.img3,  (say,
1000). Multiply that value with 512 (512000 in my example).
      (b) mount -o loop,offset=512000 path-to-root.img /mnt      
(change 512000 by your value)
      (c) modify bad config files
      (d) umount /mnt
(2) restart  template-vm

and we're back!  Bernhard
