I have a MicroTech Nova 100 and I got Silverlining from LaCie.  My A/UX 
package hasn't arrived so I haven't tested this but I did partition my
drive successfully for A/UX.  Now I have Cirrus drive icon instead of a
Nova icon too.  I called Microtech and they don't currently have software
to partition their drive for A/UX.  I'll let you know how everything worked
out with Silverlining after I install my A/UX package.
