Hi:


Got myself a iBook G4, at a Action.

One big problem, it as a Password Lock-On.

I tried Boot Up the System, with an OSX-10.3 Disc/while holding down the C key, but with no luck.


Anyone has any ideas.



With Thanks

I believe you can reset it in open firmware.

If you have another Mac I think* that you can boot the ibook in target disk mode and erase the HD using disk utility of the host machine.
