How do i log in as root from a rescue?
- check docs for that rescue disk; if it's a rescue disk meant just for your system, root pwd should be your usual root pwd. - try to boot with bootparam 'init=/bin/sh' which should drop you in a shell very soon - note / will be ro and nothing else is mounted.
