fedora 8, unknown username and password

[Simon]

Anyway to bypass/reset the login details?

Got this running on an old pc and want to be 100% sure its not got anything I need on it before I reinstall.

Normally I would just pull the drives and access it from another computer but its got 4x500gig in raid5 so I;m not sure if that would work.


and I have no idea if the pc boots from usb and it doesnt have a cdrom drive

If the grub menu is not locked, or password protected, you can boot into single user mode and set a new password.
