Is there any real alternative?

  dm-crypt. (If you look at Wikipedia's crypto-disk-software comparision page, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_disk_encryption_software http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_disk_encryption_s..., you'll see that dm-crypt/cryptsetup/LUKS has pretty much all the features you would care about. Hidden containers would be nice, though.)

    I was going to say that truecrypt has the advantage of windows support, which is why I switched from dm-crypt to truecrypt. But I did some googling before hitting "reply", and apparently you can also mount dm-crypt volumes on windows with FreeOTFE. I guess I should have done some more research before switching.

      Why not use BitLocker?

        Not every edition supports BitLocker. Professional for example does not.

    Is there something similar that also runs on OS X? dm-crypt looks mountable on Windows, but something that I can use on all three would be very nice.
