Lost root password on Solaris 8 sparc

Good afternoon

We have a Solaris 8 sparc box with no CD/DVD drive. The root password is
unknown. We also have no functional Jumpstart servers available.

Is there any way, short of installing a CD drive, of accessing the root
password/etc/shadow to get into the system?

Any suggestions gratefully received!

Compliments of the season to one and all.

Greg Hitchcock
