-* Select Utilities → Startup Security Utility from the main menu.
-* Click _Turn Off Firmware Password_.
-* Select _Secure Boot: No Security_.
-* Select _External Boot: Allow booting from external media_.
-* Quit the utility and restart the machine.

-You’ll now be able to boot your system with the Boot Disk (see above).

-After the new operating system has been installed via the Boot Disk, _ensure you return to the
-Startup Security Utility and re-enable the following settings_:

-* Sometimes, when installing XCode development tools (i.e. the `t` option), not all of the macOS
