I execute ´su´ and then the *bash* shell asks for root password, when I type in the correct password the shell responds with ´incorrect password´. I´m 100% sure that the password I type is correct. Now I also have tried ´su root´ with the same result. Boot into runlevel 1 (at the grub or lilo prompt, just type a '1', then <enter>). You should be prompted for the root password when the system comes up -- if it won't take here, you are truly out of luck.
