How do I reset my password in Lubuntu 16?
In general, the problem is, I forgot my password, or someone changed it.
In general, it does not work through recovery mode, the system crashes.
What should I do?

Boot from Ubuntu Live CD.
Press Ctrl-Alt-F1
sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc
sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys
sudo chroot /mnt
sudo passwd <user>
User replace it with your username in the system.
The sda1 parameter may also differ, replace it with your own if necessary.
