Is there a 3.31 available for it?

There was a

I can probably scare it up...

New subject: NeXT question
Ok, I thought I had the info here somewhere but I can't find
it. Could someone point me to the directions on how to reset the
password on a NeXT? I got the directions from NeXT on how to do it,
but that was years ago and I can't find it now. If all goes well,
I'll be taking possesion of a Cube but it's password is not known.
Thanks

One of the guys I work with is a NeXT fan... Here's the answer he sent
me.
Subject: Re: NeXT question (fwd from Bill Pechter)
have him go into rom monitor before it boots. The
key combo is 'command ~'. Then, do a 'bsd -s'
(foot booting into single user mode). Then have
him mount / as rw and change passwd. If he is
talking about hw passwd, then he needs to remove
the battery for about 15 minutes.

Yep, that did it. It was right there in the Peanuts FAQ,
where I should've thought to look in the first place! Thanks!

I wasn't sure if there would be any BIOS differences that mattered
though, like for the hard disk support. Towards the end, we even had 386SX
upgrade boards for some of our 248's. Never did any hard disk upgrades on
any of them...they were all still running the ST-225's and ST-251's that
they shipped with.
