What about forgetting the root password with Linux? Restart the host before the physical host into single-user mode and change the password.
First, enter the single-user mode,
1. Restart the machine, press any key in the interface

2, in the interface by E (this case to grub encryption, you need to press p after entering the password)

4, such as, at the end of the input 1 or S or single, return to the return, press B to boot to enter one-user mode.

Third, for the Grub encryption, prevent others from touching the physical host after easy to modify the root password.
Configure the grub plaintext password, modify the Grub file, add password lines.

Configure the Grub ciphertext password, Grub-md5-crypt first, and then modify the configuration file.
