Did you check out

or
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-live-devel/2006-May/000249.html
or
http://www.wains.be/index.php/2007/02/19/passwd-user-not-known-to-the-underlying-authentication-module/
and many more by doing a Google search of your error.
Your solution may already exist out there. Might be better than
seeking to have someone re-trouble shoot something that may have
already been trouble shot and posted online.
I note that you didn't log in as root but rather did a su - to root.
Try one of the other terminal windows (CTRL-ALT F1-F6) and log in as
root from one of those and try to change it. See if that makes a
difference.

Thanks, the solving of the problem by writing "pwconv"in terminal
