  2. ctrl+e go to end of the line remove ro crash and add rd.break enforcing=0
  3. ctrl+x start the system
  4. Remount root fs mount -o remount,re /sysroot
  5. Switch into chroot /sysroot
  6. Reset password passwd
  7. Enable SELinux relabeling touch /.autorelable
  8. Exit shell exit


Change target to rescue mode

sudo systemctl rescue
