 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...
