i forgot my suse 10.0 root password. what should i do? there are many info i found with google, but doesnt work. is there any easy way to reset the password?
I know two ways, first goes like this:
1. reboot the box and for the options run "init=/bin/bash" 2. when you get the system prompt type "mount -o remount,rw /" 3. then just reset the password by typing "passwd"
Second method:
At the boot screen (GRUB), type an 'E', then highlight the line containing 'kernel' and press 'E' again. At the end of the line add a space and then:
init=/bin/bash
Press 'Enter' and then 'B' (to boot). You will be dumped in a single user command line where you can simply enter:
passwd
and change it to whatever, then reboot.
