I have filevault enabled on my imac. I migrated my filevaulted user account to my work macbook. When it booted, my password didnt work. However, I was able to boot from the leopard CD and change the password, enabling me to access the account.

Question: I thought filevault was supposed to prevent migration assistant? Whats the point of filevault if you can just migrate it to another computer and have full access after changing the password?
