Well, bootes secstore only holds my key for sources..

I reinitialized nvram (echo asda >/dev/sdC0/nvram, rebooted) and
ran 'passwd' as bootes , ensuring both passwords were the same.
I suspect they already were, else no login/passwd changing would have worked ?
Still, I can only drawterm to it (as bootes, or anyone else) until cron
has run.

*sigh* I'm too new/not any good at this.
