Believe it or not, this is the +best case scenario. Log in as wheel with the default PIN +`YouReallyNeedToChangeThisPINRightNowWeAreNotKidding`, and you should be +able to reset the PINs. + +If you forgot the PIN, I feel sorry for you. The only way out of this is +via [wiki:UsingSTLink ST-LINK]. The easiest way is to debug with `gdb`, set a breakpoint on +`hal_rpc_login`, and issue the gdb command `return 0`. + +== Oh no, I forgot (or reset) the master key == + +As shipped, the Alpha doesn't include a battery backup for the Master Key +Memory. So if power is interrupted, the MKM is wiped. (Also, if we had +tamper protection more sophisticated than a Panic Button, it would wipe +the MKM when you opened the case to install the ST-LINK cable.) + +Sorry, there's nothing that can be done about that. All your keys are +still in flash memory, but encrypted with the KEK, which is now gone. +(Unless you used the `masterkey unsecure set` command to store the KEK in +unprotected flash memory, but you wouldn't do that, would you?) -- cgit v1.2.3
