Umm.. I'm all for helping newbies, but there are a few things you are
missing.
1. There is plenty of documentation for these types of questions.
Consider reading a unix-faq from
rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet-by-hierarchy/comp/unix as well as the Linux-HOWTO.
You will get your answers quicker that way.
2. This is linux-scsi. Consider linux-newbie, or a slackware mailing
list.
3. Considering they got the root password from your system, what else do
you think they got? Wouldn't it be a good idea to back up your data, and
reinstall? I know I'd sure put in a trap door. He's probably mailed your
whole passwd file back to himself..
4. There are rescue disks at sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/rescue.
