RH134 - Recover Root Passwd
Working through RH134 and found that the course material indicates that appending rd.break for the boot param should produce a root prompt. What I have been experiencing is that rd.break, rd.break enforcing=0, and rw init=/bin/bash all stop at mounting the FS for both the server and desktop machines.
Has anyone noticed this previously?

Adding these two parameters would be enough to reset root password "rd.break enforcing=0", there is no need of "init=/bin/bash" parameter..
