Need help recovering Ubuntu 10.10 password - geekygeek2 - 02-23-2011
I just bought an emac preloaded with ubuntu 10.10 from a friend, however, he forgot the password. the emac will not boot from cd or usb. How could I recover the password or change. The emac will not access the grub menu. Any help would be very appreciated. Thanx!

You should be able to access grub.. it can't be recovered otherwise. What happens instead?
