I know of one third party program that will allow you to set up multiple partitions, it's called StorWare. You can call them at 800 422-2115 or 714 498-7945.

Storware is a really useful utility. It allows you to install Apple boot blocks on disks, so you can buy any SCSI hard disk instead of the ones that are pre-setup for Macs. It works well and I think it only costs about 30-40 bucks.
