Root Password Reset

  1. Go to edit mode in boot. Linux Starting Modes
  2. In “linux” line, change ro with rw rd.break
  3. In switch_root prompt, enter mount and check the rhel-root mount point (which should be /sysroot)
  4. Re-mount with mount -o remount,rw /sysroot if not rw
  5. chroot /sysroot
  6. passwd

This will only work if there is no GRUB password
