The cpu server prompts you for a secstore password when it comes up if
you haven't stored one in the nvram-like disk or floppy partition.
It will store it in that partition after you specify it.

How do you get to it?  Or, putting it another way, how do you
specify to the secstore what password to use to access it?  Specially
on a CPU server?  Is there a bypass from nvram to secstore?  There
has to be one from nvram to factotum which I wish I understood
better, so perhaps I must just search a little harder.

I think I have a good grip on the rest, thank you.
