So I've been given a harddrive from a friend that is password locked. When it's in the original laptop, the computer doesn't boot without the pasword being entered. This is separate from the cmos password.
Is there anyway to get around this password without resorting to formatting the harddrive? I don't have the serial number from the laptop so I can't call dell atm. I thought maybe I could access the drive from my linux install once I get home.
