I don't have one of those handy at the moment so I think I'll keep on  
trying without for the moment.

Apple marches to the beat of a whole different orchestra w/r disk  
layout & labels, so I had to do that to get FreeBSD/PPC or OpenBSD/ 
PPC up on my G4 PowerBook 17".
Ah maybe but I like to try none-the-less :)

And I don't use hfs at all - not even for OS X.
Mind me asking what you use and why?

DFLY  - or any *BSD - needs only a fraction of the resources even a  
cleand-up and stripped-down OS X consumes.
Well I don't have any problems with it. Runs lovely and smooth. Of  
course, I would like to get DragonFly running like that too.
