    Just an idea (as it doesn't work ;) ...

    A trick known from linux is to boot the kernel with /bin/sh instead of
    /sbin/init. You'd do "set init_path=/bin/sh" for that in the loader.
    This would bypass the usual startup and thus you won't be asked for
    the password.

    However, i just tried this and it doesn't work. The sh immediately
    exists and consequently the kernel panics. Don't know what's the
    problem there...
