4) Now highlight the second line and again press "e".
5) You will able to edit that line, now at the end of that line type "1" (or) "single"
6) After typing "1" (or) "single" press "b" for boot. This will boot the system in single user mode. In linux single user mode usually doesn't require password for login.
7) After booting the system in single user mode, in the console or terminal type "passwd", which will ask you for setting the new password for root, change the password and login again as usual.
