Reboot with
init=/bin/sh
and add
getmein::0:0:0:0:::
(or similiar) to your /etc/shadow
then reboot normally and log in with getmein and no pass.

mhm. perhaps you want to find some setuid/setgid programs on that machine which are vulnerable?
find / -perm +a+s -type f -ls
or try to detect services on that machine which are running and perhaps vulnerable, using a portscan (remote & local)
/tmp could also be useful for symlinks-attacks, but that depends on the services your machine is running.
there was also a message on the bugtraq maillinglist http://seclists.org/lists/bugtraq/2006/Mar/0442.html regarding su/sudo tricking. perhaps you can exploit some sudo scripts? (i havent read that message through entirely)
good luck! Cool

use nmap to portscan, unless you have no root rights, you can't perform several tasks with nmap, but at least you can see if there is a firewall, which keeps your remote computer away from connecting to special services
and no, i don't know any kernel bugs related to that kernel version so far
