Why not just try the default NOVSTART root password and find out for yourself? If it works (which it should) you have your answer.
But if you followed the instructions, you changed your NOVSTART root password immediately. So try that one, if the default fails.

Also, see SHARE session "Installing a Novell SLES 10 Starter System without a Net(work)" at: http://linuxvm.org/Present/SHARE111/S9287mw.pdf some parts may have helped you, and still may.

Neither. Leave your TN3270 session as it is, since you'll need it later. From your desktop, SSH to the IP address shown in the message, then issue the yast command.
