Build a device
that taps into the data bus. Make it so that you can set
a memory address using knobs and then the 16-bit value you want to store
in that address. Then put a "fire" button on it that sets that memory
address to the value. Then, find out where your uid is stored in the
kernal, use your device to set the value at that address to 0, press fire
and voila! You are root!
OF COURSE! That's it! How stupid of me! But I think you just got
disinherited! You will NOT be getting my KIM-1 when I'm gone!
