Do step A at point A, do not do it where shown, and this procedure is
correct.
If you do it in the order shown originally, you'll wind up with the
old password at the next reboot.
Once you're in, you "copy start run" to load the configuration from
NVRAM into the running config. Then you edit only the paramaters that
you want to change; the enable secret and the config-register.
Then you write the modified configuration back to NVRAM with copy run
start.
Then you reload.
