You could use the 'restrict' option, it dosnt ask for a password unless you modify this arguments. (if you press enter u boot, if you add init=* it asks for a passwd).

And if you have physical access then you can simply use a floppy, usb dongle, or any other type of removable media to boot from. Once physical access is obtained then you pretty much have full access, barring full disk encryption. Personally I see linux's password for single user mode to be like a screen door infront of an old door with a combination lock on it. It takes VERY little effort to punch a whole through it, even if you only have 1 minute alone with the server. _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
