[rescue] RS/6000 thinkpad

[roosmcd at dds.nl]

 One is humming on my desk right now :). Model 7007-N40, 64Mb RAM, 340Mb disk, 
extra battery pack (it looks like I can click it onto the thinkpad, but somehow 
that doesn't work) and a car adapter. Unfortunately I don't have any of those 
nifty adapter cables and no root password :(. But it works! I'm now looking at 
a (green!) login prompt, networking is up so it probably can be hacked via the 
network interface (any pointers?).

 So basically I need an AIX 3.1.5 N40 cd (of course I only have a Xerox 4.1.5 
cd for powerstacks, but I was hoping to netboot it with a mini-root so I can 
nuke the passwd. I now AIX 4.1.5 isn't supported, but would i have a chance 
that this might work?) and a SCSI adapter cable (this is a square scsi 
connector, reminds me of the P70 I had). Any leads? Is this scsi connecter 
compatible with anything on this planet? What also is weird that according to 
the faq this thing should have some mini-aui ethernet connector, but mine has 
an AUI-connection (which is auctually very nice, I have lots of AUI-
transceivers).
