I'm a collage student recently recieved as AS in MSSP and Net+ Cert -- I have a sun ultra 66 at home it is like new a former UAF (university of alaska fairbanks) Server the problem is both the floppy and CDrom are turned off and I have neither the root or Bios passwords.

I have spoken to some admins at UAF and have been given a sequence to stop the boot process and boot from a disk or floppy however it would not read my red hat 7.3 cd boot disk or even a knoppix disk -- I am waiting now for a copy of solaris 8 (the ultra's current OS)from e-bay to arrive and try again. What I was wondering is since you have a running solsris 8 (possibly an ultra 66 or something close enough) could you make me a boot disk?

I've had the machine in my house for almost 2 months and would like to start learning how to use it.
