In Drive Setup, create one Mac OS Extended partition of about 200 or 250Mb,
which is plenty big to hold the Mac OS system, and leave the rest
unallocated. Install Mac OS, Boot X etc. and boot off of the ramdisk. Once
you're in the YDL setup, you'll use fdisk to create the linux partitions in
the unallocated space. The easiest thing to do is create a 128Mb partition
for swap, and use the rest of the disk for root.
