Boot your system using a live cd. Then mount your suse partition some where...say /mnt/suse. Then chroot into the new system and change the password using passwd command. Here is an example assuming that the partition on which you installed SuSE is hda6
Code:
mkdir /mnt/suse
mount /dev/hda6 /mnt/suse
chroot /mnt/suse /bin/bash
passwd
