From: "Geo."
I think once you set a password for the admin account and turn off that
stupid login display that shows you all the accounts (so you get a normal
login prompt instead of that thing) the admin account will work like
normal.
Assign a password to the admin account by booting to safe mode then once
logged in as admin hit ctrl-alt-del and change password.
reboot to normal mode
when that stupid login thing that shows all the user accounts is on the
screen hit ctrl-alt-del twice and a normal login window should appear,
login as admin.
