It will depend on how complex your configuration is. |

I don't remember if Gentoo requires root's password when entering single |

user mode or not. (I've not tested it in a long time.) |

Invoking Bash (or any shell) as init may not work as desired if your |
| 13 |
system configuration is complex and needs fancier things (modules / |
| 14 |
network resources / etc) during normal init. |

My 20 years worth of experience is to have a root password set so that |

you can fix this more directly and more reliably. |

Ideally, as soon as you learn that sudo is not working as desired, use |
| 20 |
su -- using root's password -- and revert the recent sudo change. |
