Полигон-2

- подключить накопитель к десктопному компьютеру, желательно под управлением Линукс
- подмонтировать файловую систему SGI
- найти файл /etc/passwd и /etc/shadow
- либо по хэшу восстановить пароль крякалками, либо занопить хэш. Тогда должен быть пустой пароль.

Не совсем верно заголовок темы написан, пароль в System Maintenance Menu к рутовому паролю в IRIX отношения не имеет. Вот процедура сброса пароля для System Maintenance Menu:

Now if you have forgotten your PROM/NVRAM Password (when you click "Stop for Mantenance" on boot and your prompted. ) then do the following:


1. With the system powered off, remove top cover of the system.

2. Find the black jumper on the motherboard and remove it.

* On the Indy, the jumper is located next to the connectors where the power supply plugs into the motherboard.
* On an Indigo2, the jumper is a little harder to get to. It is located on the motherboard underneath the 5.25" disk drive tray.
* On an O2, it?s a little bit different. Remove the jumper that is located under the CPU board next to the black chip & replace
it onto the 2-pin jumper slot right next to the memory banks.

3. Once the jumper is removed, power up the system and enter the System Maintenance menu again.

4. When you try to enter the previously password-protected menu options, you should get this message: "Warning: Password jumper
has been removed. Not enforcing PROM password"

5. Now enter the Command Monitor and use the resetpw command to remove the password.

6. Power off the system and put the jumper back onto the motherboard from where you removed it. The next time you start the system,
the password should be gone.

Пароль в IRIX можно сбросить и без изъятия диска, но нужен дистрибутив IRIX:

1. Insert cd for Irix 6.5 "Installation Tools".
2. Click "Stop for Maintenance" button.
3. Click "Install System Software" button.
4. Click "Local CDROM" button then "Install" button.
5. Click "Continue" button that pops up.
6. Choose "3" admin mode.
7. Choose "7" Shroot.
8. At the prompt type "passwd" and then your new root password.
9. Then just type "Exit" then "Return" then "Quit" pressing enter after each.
10. Answer "y" for yes when asked to reboot.

В файлообменных сетях. В Е-муле его полно.
и на http://rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=379560 - там исходники 6.5 лежат

Перекачал бы кто-нибудь на нормальный файлообменник с доступом по http.
