When you boot openSUSE (using GRUB I assume) there is a place to enter boot options. If you enter "init=/bin/bash" (without the quotes) that will boot and get you a shell with root permissions. Here just issue the command "passwd" to set the root password to whatever you like. After that reboot normally and you should be able to log in as root. -- Don -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
