"And there's also the (easiest) option of booting with "init=/bin/bash"

I'm pretty sure that option wasn't available that far back.
For completeness for the ignorant, whether that option is available
depends on the boot loader, not on Linux. Since the choice of bootloader
depends on the platform, translating Mark's reply to other platform is
risky.
Time to evaluate the SLES 10 starter system.
