Hi,
This is my first Blog for Linux. I am starting this page with issue I have faced.I am new to Linux. When I started working with Ubuntu, I lost root password. Luckily with help of friend I was able to reset password. I am more than happy to share the same on this site:With following assumption below commands will work:
1) If you are able to login to Ubuntu with another user who has Administrator rights2) Ubuntu is installed on standalone machine.1) sudo usermod -p '!' root --Disables root user
2) sudo passwd root --Enables root user and prompts for password
If above is not a scenerio, then re-install from boot CD and recover. I have not tried this step.
Next, using shared folder using virtual box on Windows.
Keep reading......Raj
