Sorry ! I only was amazed that it was possible to easily write on an ext2 partition on the same computer. Thanks to Ben Pratt, Albi and Joshua Tinnin who took time to give me detailed explanations about security subject ! Thanks to Giorgio Keramidas too. I know few things about security but now understand that a physical access to a machine allow us to destroy all and to read all non encrypted data. I should have think about the title "FreeBSD is dangerous" was too much provocative... Fabrice.
