Menu- and Boot-Level Security
Each one of the three security levels requires a different password
that must be between one and eight characters long. In order to
access a particular security level, the user needs to login as that level
or higher. A submenu exists which allows users to login to different
levels and to change the password of the current security level.
The administrative-level boot-time options are explained in detail
in the PowerPC Open Firmware UserÕs Manual, Volume 1.
