I deleted root from passwd and shadow file....

Can I crate a new root user?

Check your other thread that you opened, asking the same question. Don't post the same question multiple times.

You can TRY to boot from a CD, and go into rescue mode, and you might be able to create a new root user. But having never done/tried that, no idea if it'll work or not.
