You can boot into single-user mode and reset the root password. Check my reply to this previous post...

STILL WITH PROBLEM
Pal,
Thanks for your answer, I did what youīve wrote, but the issue is tha when I tried to log in like ROOT it keeps telling me "AUTHENTICATION FAILED", no matter what i put as ROOT PASSWORD Can you help me with this ? Thanks again, Rodrigo |
Are you using "root" or "ROOT" as the username? It should be "root".
Otherwise, you can login to single-user mode, create a regular user account, reboot and login as the new user, then "su -" into root account when you need to do something as root. It will just ask for the root password then. |
