Re: Lost vCenter root password

Hi, I tried both options: boot with rescue CD and Single User option also.

First option with rescue CD failed when I tried mount /dev/sd* with command:

 

mount -o remount,rw /dev/sdb2 /mnt/

 

error message is:

 

mount: /mnt not mounted or bad option

 

IfI use ls /dev/sd* I can see:

 

/dev/sda     /dev/sda2     /dev/sdb     /dev/sdb2

/dev/sda1     /dev/sda3     /dev/sdb1     /dev/sdb3

 

No /dev/hda* is presented.

 

Second option using the Single User mode failed because there is a password locked GRUB. I don't know this password. The only option I can see in the GRUB boot menu is to enter a password for more options.
