I discovered that I could indeed boot finnix from the CD and Squeeze
from the hard drive.  Nevertheless, because of the idiosyncrasies of
finnix it will not help me recover the Squeeze root password.

Last month there was a thread about replacing a forgotten root password,
but frankly is seems to me to be easier to start the installation all
over again.
