This is true with GRUB. However, the PS3 requires Petitboot to boot, whether installed or live. I tried "init=/bin/bash" with Petitboot but did not experience the same results. I tried a couple variations of that trick, but perhaps a different syntax would've worked.

Hi All,
It seems that someone in my organization had changed the root password
on a SCO Openserver 6 box.
Apparently, there are no emergency boot disks. I think they were never

use the Openserver 6 media installations... (2 Replies)

PASSWORD-GORILLA(1) General Commands Manual PASSWORD-GORILLA(1)
NAME
password-gorilla -- a password manager
SYNOPSIS
password-gorilla
DESCRIPTION
The Password Gorilla helps you manage your logins. It stores all your user names and passwords, along with login information and other
notes, in a securely encrypted file. A single "master password" is used to protect the file. This way, you only need to remember the single
master password, instead of the many logins that you use.
If you want to log in to a service or Web site, the Password Gorilla copies your user name and password to the clipboard, so that you can
easily paste it into your Web browser or other application. Because the password does not appear on the screen, Password Gorilla is safe to
use in the presence of others.
The convenience of Password Gorilla allows you to choose different, non-intuitive passwords for each service. An integrated random password
generator can provide one-time passwords, tunable to various services' policies.
FILES
The program creates a configuration file .gorillarc in the homedirectory of the user.
