  UNIX doesn't have the concept of "administrator rights", but does have
the concepts of "super user" (root) and "single-user boot". A
single-user boot per definition gives you super user access.

To perform a single-user boot:

- Boot the system and when its says you can press ESC, do so.
- You get the firmware boot menu. Do "b p0 isl".
- You should get a "ISL> " prompt. If so, type "hpux -is".
- You should get a "# " root prompt.

  If the "hpux -is" fails, then let the system boot normally and note
the string such as for example "Booting disk(scsi.6;0x0)/hp-ux" (or
".../stand/vmunix"). Now boot again to the "ISL> " prompt, and add the
part after "Booting" to the "ISL> hpux -is" command, i.e. for example
"ISL> hpux -is disk(scsi.6;0x0)/hp-ux".
