| Maybe this won't work in Suse, but have you tried using a live cd to access
/etc/shadow? You edit the file, deleting the hash number for the administra-
tor password. It's a number between the first two colons in the administra-
tor entry, which you find by scrolling down the page. Copy it and then delete the number, but not the colons, and then save the file.
when you reboot, you should be able to get in as administrator without a
password --- it will still ask you for one, but just push Enter and in you go.
