Writing something to nvram is as simple as "echo something >
/dev/nvram". That is not the trick.
The trick is writing something to nvram in a way that will not interfere
with the machine's normal operation. Also, if the lab does "restore
factory defaults" in the CMOS, it is highly likely that what you wrote
to the nvram will be erased. If they remove the battery for long enough
it is certain it will be erased. So, no, I don't think that's a good option.
