I have done two YDL installations: one on a G3/233 (straightforward) and
one on an iMac DV (needed Open Firmware). On both, the MacOS partition
(kernel boot) was HFS+. As I understand it, Linux cannot mount HFS+ volumes
-- but you don't need to mount your MacOS partition in Linux to do a normal
installation.
