So to get your password back, don't risk editing the mtd1 directly, just do this:

Code:

echo root:$(grep -A 13 lock_code /dev/mtd1|tail -1):

then put this in a file and crack it with any DES cracker... wait and enjoy :-)

As a side note (reference), this works with 1.2009.42-11.002 ... we'll see how it changes with time.
