press Enter for the new password (without typing any password entry) and Enter
again to confirm the password clearance.
Note: You can only set the user password after you have set the supervisor pass-
word.

Password on boot: (Security Menu)

Specify whether or not a password should be entered to boot the computer (you may
only set a password on boot if a supervisor password is enabled). If "Enabled"
is selected, only users who enter a correct password can boot the system (see the
warning in the sidebar). The default setting is "Disabled".

Secure Boot (Security Menu)

Secure Boot prevents unauthorized operating systems and software from loading
during the startup process. Secure Boot is available as a menu option if you have
Windows 8 set as your operating system, and have enabled UEFI Boot (see
Menu" on page 5 -
14). Enabling Secure Boot will bring up the Secure Boot Mode
menu to enable you to configure Secure Boot as Standard (with a fixed secure boot
policy), or Custom (which enables you to make changes to the Image Execution
Policy and Key Management database).
