Hey I am very unexperienced so I hope this is not a question that I could have been answering myself by further research.
I forgot the password to my own machine and found out that there's a workaround by entering the Grub-menu and adding init=/bin/bash at the end of the "linux-line", and then booting with F10. I have the problem, that my machine freezes after that showing Loading initial ramdisk.
I found that this is a common problem (Boot Freezes and "Loading initial Ramdisk") but cannot fix it by replacing quiet splash with dis_ucode_ldr (as the linked thread suggests). I now removed the $vt_handoff from the line and now my system boots, yet I am somehow suspicious that I am destroying something because I have zero experience.
Can I cause any harm by removing the $vt_handoff section from the GRUB menu, when booting?
