You could just edit /etc/shadow and remove the password field.
That is on the sata drive. I will have to unplug the sata, hook it up
to a sata/usb adapter to gain access to the shadow file from another
system. Part of the reason I went with the Cubieboards was the sata
interface.
It looks like there is a file in /boot/grub/loader that has the options
entry and at that point it is booting off the sd card. So I think I can
get it into single user mode. Will be trying this tomorrow.

I connected a monitor and keyboard and rebooted the one system.
Was just given the option list that I cannot edit.
So what file on the sd card do I edit to add 'single'?
thank you

First discovered no sudo. I always had used su and never
noticed no sudo. Is there someway someone could send me the
bin and I could run it from a usb drive from my user account?
But since no sudo, I wanted to boot into single user mode to
change root's password. I hook up to the console serial port
and power cycle the server. I get a selection list of
Centos Options
1: centos
No way to up arrow and press A to append single mode to that.
How do I get the system to boot into single mode?
thanks
Bob
