If you're at the MCR prompt at this point, very likely you've got a
[200,200] UIC. Switch to a priv'd UIC (i.e. SET /UIC=[1,1]), do
a RUN $ACNT, and use the menu options to set the password for the
SYSTEM account to whatever you want.

See chapter 2 of the _System Management Guide_ for more details.
