--Grub menu access shift or escape at boot
--Advanced options --> recovery mode --> drop to root shell prompt
--mount -o remount,rw /
--passwd user_name
--reboot

Exact command mount:

'mount -o remunt,rw /' (without quotes)

Set passoword:

'passwd your_user_name' (without quotes & type your own user name)

It will ask for your new UNIX password, give it (won't echo = show). That's done twice.

Then type 'reboot' (without quotes).
