Well, persistance pays! :') About 30 minutes after I sent this plea for
help, I found an article on CCO that gave me the info I needed. The MGS
series routers used hardware based config registers. There is a 50 pin
header on the processor card. Setting bit 6 causes the NVRAM to be ignored.
The full text is here (watch the word wrap):

Now back to the lab.

Subject: MGS password recovery
Anyone want to jump into their "way-back" machine and help me figure out how
to perform password recovery on a MGS? I have two of them with unknown
enable passwords. I checked the password recovery section on CCO but the
don't list anything as old as a MGS. I also searched the archives but did
not find an answer.
I will continue digging through CCO. I am hoping to get two cheap but
functional routers for my home lab out of this effort.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
Jeff
