Well I've tried everything that I can think of and everything that
everyone suggested. I get the ISL> prompt but I can't run PASSWD. The help
screen says to use LS to display th ISL utilities. When I do that the only
things listed are FS, HPUX and ODE. I tried to execute a couple of common
programs like VI and it doesn't find them either. One of the Man pages that
I found online
<http://www.informatik.uni-frankfurt.de/doc/man/hpux/isl.1m.html> said that
if you turn the Autoboot off and then load ISL that you will have access to
"any isl command name or the name of any utility available on the system"
but that doesn't seem to be the case.
HELP!

As I recall on HP-UX, during the boot process you'll see a line about "init
something something"... I believe you hit space here, then type the same
init line but append "-s" to designate going to single user. If this totally
vague and possibly inaccurate email doesn't help, let me know and I'll go
boot up a box to refresh my memory.

Jay,
Can you (or anyone else on the list) get around the password on one of
these? It's running HP-UX 9.05. The OS is installed on a MountainGate
IncreMeg 1 Gb removeable hard drive (nice drive!) I found that this one
was
used on the Final Assembly Test Station for the
Predator Autopilot!
