First login, sudo password not working, trying single user mode - keyboard not giving any input.

Hi,
If I'm asking question that's already solved then I'm sorry and redirect me please.
The problem is like in the title. I have just installed debian 4.19.171-2
[img]file:///C:/Users/chupito/Desktop/Temp/ver.JPG[/img]
Installed it on hyper-v. As with my previous installations I couldn't access root - the password I'd set up on install didn't work. But previously I was able to work it out by pressing "e" at the start and writing "init=/bin/bash" at the end of "linux" line:
[img]file:///C:/Users/chupito/Desktop/Temp/grub.JPG[/img]
Then by typing "mount -o remount,rw /" and "passwd".
My problem is that this time after getting command line in single user mode, after adding "init=/bin/bash" my keyboard doesn't give any input. It works on windows, obviously works in the grub while adding line, works in debian if I log in as standard user.
Can anyone help me out with this?
Thx.
