I am was unable to use the root password that i had reset by following the below steps. I was getting login denied
1. On the Grub menu type e
2. edit the Linux16 with rd.break
3. hit Ctrl+x
4. mount -o rw,remount /sysroot
5.chroot /sysroot
6. passwd
7. Enter password again
8. echo / .autorelabel
In Step 8, you probably mean to either touch /.autorelabel , or echo "" > /.autorelabel .

oops.!!!
I tried on my system and touch /.autorelabel is worked well.
glad it worked
Cheers!
in my case when adding the rd.break on node 2 never allowed me to continue typing the rest I type ctlt+x and it was asking me for root passwoord
Can you please paste the steps and screenshot if possible? Also, can you please tell me the System Architecture (how many nodes or it is cluster of multiple nodes etc.)
redhat 9 , and
1. On the Grub menu type e
2. edit the line that start with Linux and add in the end rd.break
3. hit Ctrl+x
4.- then it was asking me for root password
TBH, in my case it is working fine.
There might be other disk related encryption might be enabled or something.
I also exprience the same on delivering the RH134 courses, can anyone including @Tracy_Baker could confirm does on RHA VM on Cloud works?
There are chat happen around with Red Hat Employee on https://www.reddit.com/r/redhat/comments/v1tjay/strange_situation_root_password_reset_rhel_9/iapvlhf...
I can't use rd.break both on servera or even on workstation. I remember back in the day, this bug exist on 8.2 also... At that time, I still have workaround using
ro init=/bin/bash
on the linux grub line, as the lab still allow it, now I can't do it anymore.
Any help is appreciated
