If I boot from the OS X CD, can I grant admin rights to an existing user, or just change the admin password for the existing admin? thanks, Brian
I can't answer your question directly, but you don't need to boot off of the CD to do that.
You can grant admin rights if you're booted from the HD and logged in as an administrator yourself. Just open the System Preferences, choose "Accounts" and click the box "Allow user to administer this computer" for any other user that you want to grant that right.
