nvram reset or crack password
Hello guys ,and girls.
Im having a very interesting problem. I have a Netra SUN machine and i had it here for quite a while now...i wanted to install it as a new server and todo so i needed to mount a cd rom and to change the boot at the prom level to cdrom. this could work but i forgot the nvram password ! and it is very frastrating because i can not rememmber the nvram password or the os password. so i have now a big shelve that just makes a lot of noise and i can not do with it nothing .  so if you can help thanks up ahead. |

nvram password usually are set in your sistem BIOS (EPROM) to disable it remove the cover of your system and take out the system Battery (carefull while touching the battery surface). Hold for a couples of minutes then put it back. The nvram password would automatically released from the memory (blank). Hope it helps, post back if this solution doesnt help much...

STOP-N
sorry about this one.
i dont have any graphic adapter connected to it. i use an annex machine to connect to its terminal. and i have tried the ~# and the ~! they are not helping me i get this massage: type CONTROL D to continue with the normal startup or enter root password to go into the nvram [or something like that ...i hope you got the pic.] ..... so once again back to where we begun... keep the good spirit though.  thanks again for your help. |
