If you want another user to have access only to your system but not
to setup, set a users password with the System option selected in
the BIOS Features Setup. If you want a user to enter a password when
trying to access setup, set a users password with the Setup option

set, confirm, verify, disable or delete a users password, follow the
procedures described in the section Supervisor Password. If you
