I believe that the plain HFS boot partition was created during
Fedora install. It's now running MacOS 10.4.11 and Fedora 12,
which are both the latest applicable releases.
I though you meant a user accessible volume being formatted as HFS.
HFS+ and HFSX volumes must be greater than 32MB, where as HFS supports smaller sizes. As
for the purpose of the 1MB HFS volume, it may be a Fedora PPC convention. I have a PowerPC
machine dual booting two versions of Mac OS X, and the disk does not have an HFS volume on
it. They are jhfs+.
