BitLocking your Mac

Hey there everyone,

I have a quick question. Right now I am running 10.5 and Vista Ultimate, I was just wondering that If I were to bitlock my vista drive, does it do the entire volume or just the vista partition?

Thanks

Just the Vista partition, the Bitlocker feature is a function of NTFS, which is the Vista partition's filesystem. Also note that running in Boot Camp, Vista can't see the Mac partition without third party software like MacDrive.

A ha.

Well that makes a lot of sense, I never really thought of it that way.

Thank you for your help.
