Locked out of GUI - Reseet to factory from console (shell)

Hi!
While configuring a vga install (updated to the latest), I imported interfaces form a different config (with more interfaces than physically available in my current install), after fixing this I have a DHCP server on the LAN, but nothing going back and forth (no ping to the box, no GUI of the box, nothing). Disabeling pf from console (shell) doesn't help.
Is there a command from console (shell) to reset the opnsense to factory?
Many thanx in advance...

I have done this before by renaming the config file and rebooting.

Code:
[Select]

or such? :-)

I would just rename the file
Code:
[Select]
cd /conf
sudo mv config.xml config.bak
and then reboot
