i just want to secure my mac. since there's a lot of thief right now. i read that the master password and the firmware password is not the same..

• Open Firmware password — The computer itself can be protected by a single password that prevents unauthorized users from altering the startup process. • Master password — An administrator must create a single master password before users can protect their home folders with FileVault. The master password acts as a back door for resetting passwords on FileVault-protected accounts.

Ehh, is that a smart idea? I'd be scared Voiceover wouldn't read that screen where you type it in, and if that's the case, God help you, if something goes ape crud and you can't figure out what the screen is saying. LOL!

May I ask why you wanna do that, over just setting a login password instead?
