I had set the passord and some point and then I disabled it when I swaped drives. But the drive I put in was not IBM brand. I then tried my old password and it did not work. So I ended getting a used motherboard on ebay for about $150. This was a 2 years ago and at that time I guess I saw the bad info regarding the 24C01A on the web somewhere. In any case it does'nt matter now as the company I work for has now given me a brand new Toshiba 2400 series laptop. Whole 'nother set of Linux issues with it, including sound APM, MMC, etc.. It's fast, but the quality & feel does not compare to the 600e. I have now relegated the 600e to cross-compiling ARM apps for my YOPY PDA. Which I am struggling with right now....
