Just to be sure, when you say boot cd > passwd, you mean boot cd > mount / > chroot mntpoint > passwd, right? This always worked for me.

I'm not able to use *ANY* user to login to my machine since the kmod replaced module-init-tools.  Nothing has changed in my /etc/{passwd,shadow} files.  Kmod is spitting out weird messages stating errors in /lib/udev definitions.
I'm assuming kmod is borrowed from *BSD.  I'm getting errors related to a shared library in congruent to udev, libkmod.so, from the process, udevadm. 
/sbin/modprobe is a soft-link to /usr/bin/kmod which isn't mounted yet, despite the early /usr mount option.  When it comes to mounting /usr at that time, I don't think mine is. 
Have mine fixed, just put the /usr/bin/kmod "undermounted" on my / partition (temporarily) along with /usr/lib/libkmod.so.1 and /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (copying the actual files and then linking to them).
