I use a program called "Hard Disk" Partition I can't remember who
makes it right now. However, it lets you partition your drive into
several smaller "virtual" disks and gives you the option to password
them. I have been using this with the newest System and Finder for
several months now and haven't had any problems.

I ordered this to protect myself from my 4 and 5 year olds. They
seemed to like the bulging trash can icon and would throw things away
just to see it. I put their programs and the system on the root partition
the standard applications on one partition, and the stuff I was worried
about on a third partition. Then I passworded the development partition.
Worked great! Except for the time my 5 year old passworded the application
partition, sigh...
