Hello
I have a big problem. I have six new computers running Mandrake. I
would like to migrate them to Debian, but everything is password
protected and the people who installed the original OS *forgot* all
the passwords.
I tried today to boot from a live CD, but found out that BIOS is set
to boot from hard disc and access to BIOS is password protected.
What can I do?
Thanks for help.

My recollection is that there is a key-sequence that can override the
BIOS password. Probably someone on the list recalls that, or you could
try googling. When I did, I found these suggestions:
