Help,

In trying to resolve a missing plugin for pagemaker I installed the
netboot system folder and forgot about the comments about password etc.

After designating the netboot os 9 folder and restarting I cannot now
get past the netboot password screen.

No amount of key presses on restart help either - option, cmd+option+p
+r, cmd+option+shift+delete, option alone - none work, even "T" will
not give me target disk mode.

Can anyone remember the pass word etc to get me out of this?

Hoping for help

Ged

The default user name is NBUser with the password netboot.

I would appreciate someone redirecting me to the correct forum. My
iPhone 3 (?) has all of a sudden stopped receiving mail on my home
wireless connection, although it still sends it and Safari works.

Mea culpa, about the forum.

Thanks for that Fabian, we are back up and running again.

There are times when we should THINK first.

Apple Support Communities, formerly Apple Discussions, have forums for everything Apple, including iPhones:
<https://discussions.apple.com/community/iphone>

There are also countless other iPhone forums. Do a Google or similar search for yourself.
