Opps! You forgot what you just enterend? You can always go back and change the password. Just boot any live CD. Open a terminal and mount your root partition, if not auto mounted. check by typing the mount command
exp: mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1
Switch into your Suse install with the chroot command exp: chroot /mnt/hda1
Change your root password exp: passwd
Change your user password if you remember your username
exp: passwd user
Reboot and your set.
Humm…
If you have not put any password before, this means it is here where you must specify your user name and password. (new accont creation for short)
Remember if you are prompt to specify root password you should enter a password that you will not forget, because root is the administrator of the linux machine and has all permissions.
