Don't know about after the system is booted.
I suppose before u boot, from your bootloader (probably GRUB) you can
start the system in Single User mode (using "init 1" or "single"
appended to the list of arg passed when booting the kernel), and once u
get the prompt simple use passwd to change the password.
Hope it helps,
