Ze,

Restart the computer and put it into single user mode.  At either LILO or
GRUB, type 'linux 1' at the prompt.  

Then, once the computer has started, go into a terminal and type in 'su'. 
You won't need to enter in a password.  Type in 'userconf' and change the
root password.

Reboot the system and you should be all set.
