Right. I have distro floppies, minus the starting disk. The donor had

If I could build a bootable VENIX disk that would dump me to a prompt,
I wouldn't have to worry about what the old password was.

I even have some Pro hardware sitting in a corner
- lots of it hit the
thrift stores about 6 years ago - you could get a complete system for $10.
I even had someone come to my house to give one away! It has VENIX on it
and works, but he forgot the root password and I never had the time to
go crack it
The Venix distribution was up on the DECUS site so you can get it
free... I'd have killed for the source code.
