Q: can i go back mavericks
did an earlier post which got pulled as I was just getting somewhere.
So if I erase the macintosh hd partition and leave the system restore partition which I cannot access due to yosemite being buggy, will at reboot I get option to reinstall mavericks from the restore disc or my time machine.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.0.x), want mavericks back

Are you unable to boot to any other media? When you hold 'alt' at startup do you also see the padlock?
It sounds like you have a firmware password set…

The screens also look like the image at http://www.imore.com/how-set-your-macs-firmware-password-and-why-you-shouldnt
Is that what you see or something else?
