If it's restricted, you'll see an "R>" prompt instead of the normal
">>" prompt.

I know the 5000/120 has a jumper to clear the NVRAM.  The jumper on
the 5000/120 is at the front of the motherboard near the power
connector, and is labeled something obvious like "NVR".  If you can
find the right jumper on your /25, power off, stick a jumper on there,
power on, then when you get the ">>" prompt, power off and remove the
jumper, then power on again.  You'll have to reset all environment
variables after doing that.
