Help - Can't boot RH Linux 9 to Single user mode!

[TOM DOLCE]

I'm trying to boot to single-user mode to reset the root password.  I entered "e" on boot up to edit the kernel line in Grub and added "single' to the end of it, then "b" to boot into single user mode. However, instead of going to single user mode the system says:   Enter root password to do maintenance or Control-D to continue   So, since I don't know the root password (which is a whole other story) I enter Control-D and it boots normally to multi-user mode.  Is there some way around this or another way to reset the root password?????   Tom   Tom Dolce Application Development Manager and Deputy CIO Department of Corporations [EMAIL PROTECTED] (916) 322-1870
