Can you please tell me how to do this with my SUSE 10.0 installation? I mean,
booting into runlevel 1?

prompt without requiring a root password like other distros.

Which "nice boot screen"? You mean the GRUB screen or the one with the HDD,
keyboard, PCI card and PC images?

I have a graphical GRUB boot menu with multi-OS boot (SUSE and WinXP). How do
I access the text mode, since the command you seem to advise is applicable
only at the GRUB prompt?/

Hi Shriramana;
press F2 (or F3)
You may try to press esc when GRUB comes, then press e to edit your boot

linux 1 init=/bin/sh
This should do the work.Or maybe boot with a live-cd and edit /etc/shadow...

So what? Just use 'init=/bin/bash' and you have a shell.
