You aren't able to modify the arguments as they're set in the mneu.lst file.
As you have configured this it should be very easy to try.
Have you also tried a different position of the password line in the menu.lst file?
I've never use one as part of the actual kernel and initrd configuration.
Please try something like this in your /boot/grub/menu.lst file:
title openSUSE 12.1 - 3.1.9-1.4 root (hd0,5) kernel /vmlinuz-3.1.9-1.4-default root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/... initrd /initrd-3.1.9-1.4-default password --md5
If this works please check the openSUSE wiki and update it. Thanks!
Well I tried and finally get to know that I appened the work 'lock' just below the title bar of each -- (i) openSUSE and (ii) Failsafe, so now even the long pressing Enter doesn't allow to get booted. Found it here ultimately, http://tr.opensuse.org/SDB:Setting_a_Password_for_the_Boot_Manager_GRUB however, seeing other options too...if ...... Thanks.
Please update the english wiki page(s) if required. Thanks for your support! Lars -- Lars Müller [ˈlaː(r)z ˈmʏlɐ] Samba Team SUSE Linux, Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany
