When I logged in today on my laptop and tried to do something in konsole it asked me for my password. So i typed in my password like 100 times and it keeps on saying that It's incorrect. It worked yesterday and I know for sure I didn't change it. Is there any way to change it or make it work ? How do I reset a lost administrative password? doesn't work for me. I have toshiba chromebook 2 and I don't have bios so this method doesn't work ! When I type sudo su to get root access Its asking me for username password which doesn't work. I tried to do it in chrome os by pressing ctrl+alt+t and then shell this is what I get.

chronos@localhost / $ sudo passwd Enter new UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: passwd: Authentication token lock busy passwd: password unchanged

so I tried different method.

chronos@localhost / $ sudo su
localhost / # sudo passwd
Enter new UNIX password: 
Retype new UNIX password: 
passwd: Authentication token lock busy
passwd: password unchanged
localhost / # sudo passwd crazy_driver
passwd: unknown user crazy_driver
localhost / # passwd crazy_driver
passwd: unknown user crazy_driver

Again: chronos@localhost / $ sudo passwd crazy_driver passwd: unknown user crazy_driver

I don't know why would it say unknown user, maybe because Im not logged in to chroot ? but if i log in its asking for password before I get to make any changes.
Can anyone help me solve this problem ?
