You're probably going to have to control-alt-del it, boot to single user mode, mount /usr and /, and edit the password file with vipw to remove root's passwd, reboot, and change root's password. I also suggest looking into comp.security.unix and getting some tips from their FAQ. O'Reilly has a new edition of one of their security books coming out that may be of use.
