I have an iMac and I set it to automaticaly start on an account. I want when the computer boots to be able to switch on another account. How can I do this?
If I press "alt" when it starts the options I have are "root", "boot volume" and the normal user.
The thing is that I have this computer at my workplace. I have one normal account and I want to keep my real account "FileVault" secured and also out of sight, that is why I want for the iMac to automatically start on the normal user and not on my filevaulted user.

Is there any button combination at boot screen to log on a different user account beside the default one?

PS: The iMac has Panther OS

If you don't want it to autologin on your secure account (which is a good idea), just change the autologin setting in the Accounts pane of System Preferences. If you just want to override the setting every time you boot, though, you should be able to by holding shift after you see the "Mac OS X is Starting Up" screen.
