Try the LOCK command. It is designed to lock/unlock FFS partitions.

Type: LOCK FAST: ON <return>

where fast: is the name of your partition. If the partition is old file
system you'll get a message: Attempt to change lock failed. If the partition
is FFS you'll get: FAST: locked

Don't forget to unlock it: LOCK FAST: OFF
