Please add this somewhere you feel comfortable with in grub.texi. I looked, but cannot find the right place.
Thank you. @Chapter Tips @node Forgot the root password One place when grub can come in very handy is when one forgot the root password, and hence cannot boot or even shutdown the system. Use @example linux /boot/vmlinuz-... root=... rw init=/bin/sh initrd /boot/initrd.img-... @end example The key is the "rw init=/bin/sh". (And after editing /etc/passwd to change root's :x: to ::, be sure not to just exit the shell, but hit CTRL-ALT-DEL, else one has to push the reset button.) _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
