I believe SunOS 2.4 is old enough all you need to do is delete the
password hash from /etc/passwd to log in without a password.

Please tell me more: what is SunOS 2.4?
I know of SunOS (1.x, 2.0, 3.x, 4.x) and Solaris (1.x and 2.x).
Or do you mean Solaris 2.4 (i.e. SunOS 5.4)?

In any case, Christian, here's something that usually works with any
flavor of Unix: Mount the drive on some other machine where you have root
access, then blank the password hash field in /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow,
depending on where the hash really is. If the OS on the drive that you're
trying to break into doesn't like that, figure out the hashing scheme it
uses, then generate a new hash and put that in. Since you've managed to
guess the password of a regular user account, you can use that hash.
