Do Not Forget Your Supervisor Password!
Note the password and keep it in a safe place. If you forget your
supervisor password, you have to take the computer to an IBM
authorized reseller or IBM marketing representative to have the
system board replaced. Proof of purchase is required, and an
additional charge might be required for the service.
If you forget your supervisor password, there is
no way to reset
your password or recover data from the hard disk. Neither
an IBM authorized reseller nor IBM marketing representative can
make the hard disk drive usable.
If you are using more than one hard disk drive, see page 115.
