How do either of these help the OP?
The original question was about doing the fp match even before the OS is 
booted into - for bios paswords etc.
I don't think it's possible without a custom BIOS.
Maybe, custom coreboot/linuxbios image with fp support help?
Do mainstream motherboards support coreboot/linuxbios?

Check:

This might also be of interest to the OP:
