Hard disk Partitions

Yeah, tried that...  The funky thing about all of it is that I need to get
the dos partition on hda1 (because of Hardware).

Whats seems to be working is to create my three partitions with fdisk.  Make
the first dos (FAT16), second and third linux.  I can then format the last
partition with hformat.  That gets me my hfs partition.  It won't boot Mac
OS by itself, but it doesn't need to for MOL or yaboot to find it.

I then just take a pre-installed disk and 'dd' it to the partition.  It is
working for now, but I will see in a couple hours of use.  I might try that
hcopy, it might be a faster transfer.

Ah well, thanks all for the input.
