     and  Change the password
  3.     Sync and reboot the system 


       1. Get into the Grub and Go to recovery mode



   
 As you can see i am not able to login, so lets reboot the system

  


       After this make sure you are fast enough to enter to grub before it loads full Gui mode so            keep pressing        "esc"  key so that we can  enter in grub menu


      Select Advanced options for Ubuntu and hit Enter
