[CUBE] lost JAG password

[Thubten Kunga]

 From Mac OS X The Missing Manual by David Pogue Page 340 "The Case of 
the Forgotten Password"

"Insert the Jaguar CD and restart the computer while holding down the C 
key so the Mac starts up from the CD and launches the Mac OS X 
installer.

On the first installer screen, choose Installer->Reset Password. Then 
the Reset Password screen appears, click the hard drive that contains 
Mac OS X. From the first pop-up menu, choose the name of your account. 
Now make up a new password and type it into both boxes. Click Save, 
close the window, click the installer and restart.

Next time, be more careful! Write down your password on a Post-it notre 
and affix it to your monitor. (Joke)"
