At the "ISL>" prompt, enter "hpux
-is". This will boot the system into single user mode and automatically log you in as
"root".
-------
When your in the system, you can change the root password:
"passwd root"
Just reboot he system "shutdown -r now" and let it follow the normal boot
process.
So is MPE that similar to HP-UX? I thought it would be something semi-bizarre so I
didn't pursue it at all (also the difficulty of finding a 3k and MPE media).
Had it slotted in with OS/400 in the "things that will be a huge headache and very
expensive, so don't bother" class...

MPE is very different from hpux. (you don't start it with "hpux
-is", you start it with "start" etc).
usernames and security is also very different.
It is a diffferent beast entirely.
(but really fascinating and one of the best and most secure O/S's
ever made (up there with VMS and IBM's VM/VSE/MVS/OS390/ZOS.)
