Did you do a
reset-all after making your changes to the NVRAM vars?
I seem to remember that I sometimes changed the
boot-device, then booted the OS and after shutdown and restart noticed that the
boot-device var had its old value (from before my change) again - but I'm unsure if this was on a Sun, Apple or IBM machine :-/. I don't have one of my UltraSPARC II driven machines at hand now, but I maybe can do some experiments on Sunday with an Enterprise 250, which should be reasonably close to the Ultra2 although it's a PCI and not a SBUS system.

Hey, but that's progress at least. Something has been changed on your Ultra2! :-) And the password is gone, right?
