You can find the password recovery process for the 2948G here:

Essentially:

  • connect the console cable and establish a console session
  • power-cycle the switch
  • enter a blank password within 30 seconds of seeing the password prompt
  • issue the "enable" command
  • use "set password" to reset your new access password
  • use "set enablepass" to set your new enable password
