Mavericks administrator password lost

[iltenente]

Hi, I've installed an hackintosh for a friend of mine using Clover and I've setted no wait time to start OSX. Yesterday she asked me to help her becouse can't remember the password she changed time ago. I know for reset administrator password I need enter in recovery disk partition and in terminal writing resetpassword. I can't boot from recovery disk becouse the system start immediately in the main partition. Is there a simple way to solve this problem?

basic procedure works with latest version of MB.
Booting with the USB allows you to select which partition you want to boot.

It's very similar to my Windows password reset,i finally managed to break Windows password, believe it you can reset the password ,i hope that the method I provided will be useful to you, for your reference only
