good morning, back in action!

summerized I have 3 possibilities to solve the root-password problem:

1. examine both files from diag-mode (partition mmcblk0p2) and rewrite these files in normal-mode (partition mmcblk0p1) so they look like the ones in diag.mode
2. try setting a root pw for normal-mode with chroot - then i have to login root with pw later on
3. copy the '/etc/passwd' and '/etc/shadow' from my kubuntu under the assumption kindle and kubuntu using the same encryption

why not simply copy '/etc/passwd' and '/etc/shadow' from diag-mode to normal-mode?
