per previous messages about creating username/password:

boot to the grub screen, watch closely, you will have to press escape
key to get there.  choose recovery kernel.  in the menu, choose drop to
root shell.  use the command useradd followed by the username you want
to add.  then the command passwd followed by the username you just
created to create the password.  reboot, and login.



good luck,
