Help on Altos 586 system...

Greetings; Decided to fire up yet another previously unchecked box in the collection, and after the normal preliminaries cranked it up, and found that it boots to Xenix v3.0b. And of course, with the usual problems... No docs, and no passwords... Tried some of the more common openings, with no success so far... And I've watched the boot process, and don't see any opportunity to abort to 'single user' mode... Suggestions??? I can abort the boot all together, and end up at the following screen: ALTOS COMPUTER SYSTEMS - 586 Monitor Version V1.1 Press any key to interrupt boot Enter [1] to boot from Hard Disk Enter [2] to boot from Floppy Disk Enter [3] to enter Monitor Booting from the hard disk takes me back to Xenix, I have no floppies so that one is out for the moment, and going to the 'monitor' gets me this: Enter option: 3 < A, B, D, G, I, K, L, M, O, R, S, X > Anyone have any insights as to what these commands are? (don't want to stumble onto a HD init by accident) When Xenix boots, it indicates that the machine has 840k of RAM, but says little else. I'm not even sure right at the moment what processor is in it. (not dug that far under the panels) Anyone familiar with this particular machine, and/or this variant of Xenix that might be able to provide some insights? Any thoughts would be appreciated!
