Some systems (some Compaq ProLiant's are especially famous for this) has only a stub of a bios in the ROM, with the setup portion(s) being kept in a hidden partition of the hard drive. If your hard drive went bad, or if when you installed Linux you chose to remove ALL partitions, the hidden partition gets destroyed. The fix is to obtain a CD from the system vendor and restore the management partition.
