>From Rommon, change your config reg to 0x2142. Reload the router. Once you
have logged in do a 'COPY START RUN' to merge your old config with the one
running in RAM. Edit your passwords to how you want them and change the
config reg back to 0x2102. Before you reload the router for the final time,
do a 'copy start tftp' and replace the original startup config with the one
now on your router. You will now be able to reload the router fine. Say
YES to the prompts that ask you if you want to save.
