Q: How can i remove or disable grub menu password?


Removing grub password can be done by editing the grub.conf configuration file. Only thing you need to do is remove or disable the line starts with "password".

For example:In my CentOS-6, the line starts with password looks like below.
password --md5 $1$rWR/yk8A$XkDFjPZvI.om9nUFC2beF. 

[root@server ~#]vi /etc/grub.conf                       or in /boot/grub/grub.conf
#password --md5 $1$rWR/yk8A$XkDFjPZvI.om9nUFC2beF.   (Add "#" to disable the line)
#(now save the grub.conf file)
Disable line by adding "#". Click on image to enlarge
