The SilverLining software that comes with Cirrus drives from LaCie
will allow you to create different partitions and put passwords on any
you choose.

This will not prevent someone from using your Mac as a floppy based
machine, but it should keep them off your disk.

Notes:	=I don't know whether the system partition can be password
	 protected (never tried that) but I suspect it can.  Guess I
	 should check.
	=I don't know how secure it is.  I have 2 partitions in a row
	 with differing passwords, if I give the correct password for
	 the first one and then ask for the second one without having closed
	 the controlling DA, I get the second one mounted, no
	 questions asked.
	=SilverLining is available separately, you don't have to buy
	 their disk.
	=My only relation to LaCie is as a sastified customer.

(Guess I really should post a short review about this 70 that I got in
December.)
