I would imagine there is a system admin module somewhere in the start menu, there should be somewhere in that to edit the grub installation (I take it your'e using grub) or manually edit /boot/grub/grub.conf

try this site for a start

or

It's the same as passwording the cmos in windows, unless others share it. don't bother
