Pause the boot by moving the down arrow, then back up to the default boot. But now press backspace, it should delete any text where you can see: vga=0x…
Remove all text and now type just the number:
3
and hit enter
at the login type your user name and then password
now type:
su
then the root password and hit enter a couple of times

Why are these tools disabled on the system? It takes a fair bit to
disable them on an openSUSE system (you have to opt to not install a fair
number of packages) - the purpose of these tools is to make admin easier.

Have a look at the man page for useradd.
Type: man useradd
This is the documentation for the tool and should answer your questions.

man chown
man chmod
These two commands (chown and chmod) will be what you will use for these
tasks.

man tar
This will show you the options for the tar command.

These two things are also in the man page for tar.
You’ll learn more by doing the research using the resources I’ve directed
you to above than if someone just gives you the answers.
