I do suggest you add the '1' to your boot option, this usually will boot your system into a single user environment, this should skip the login, otherwise boot from a install CD with rescue mode.

how do I add the '1' and where? I am booting up with grub (0.93). what do I have to set there to start up in single user mode?

When you get the grub boot menu, you select to edit (press e), then you select the kernel row to edit (press e), then add last to the line [space][1][return] and then select to boot (press b).


Booting up from the SuSE-CD is not working out, ince the driver for the 3ware-controller isn't on it. So I haven't got access to the harddisks in general.

Thats tough luck then, I hope the single user mode will work for you. Otherwise installing a minimal rescue instance could be something for you, of course this require you have some media where you can put it on (usb memory, if your motherboard supports booting from one).
