@Che Thanks for your reply. I could resolve the issue now. 
In the Grub shell, the instruction says to remove the consol settings. It is important to also delete the trailing comma.

RH134 Reset Root Password Not Possible
On the RHEL 9.3 lab environment, it is not possible to remount /sysroot, see attached picture.
 
I have intercepted the boot process with `rd.break` on the 'rescue' system.
However, proceeding further with the instructions to reset the root password is impossible as `mount -o remount,rw /sysroot` fails. The logs indicate an issue with previous steps in the boot process. PLS help.
