Re: HOWTO: Recover lost root password
by JillB on Wednesday October 18, @07:27AM

Jason, I am trying to bring up a Sun Ultra-2 that nobody has the root password to. The first thing I see is 'Initializing Memory'. Please help. I have been trying to get information to get into our own machine for weeks. We have no service contract or boot disk. Sun won't talk to me unless we give them a PO for $2500! Jill
