Description of problem:
Trying to set up dual-boot Mac OS X Tiger/FC4 system
iMac G3 500MHz 20GB 384MB
Partitioned drive into two identical 9.4GB HFS+ partitions
Installed Mac OS X Tiger (10.4) no problem
Booted iMac from CD 1 of 5 CD FC4 set
Chose English as language and US English keyboard, clicked 'Next' and receive the firs error message:
"The partitions data region doesnt occupy the entire partition"
Selected 'Ignore' 5 times and then received the next message:
"Attempt to read sectors 16-18 outside of partition on /dev/hda"
Kept clicking "ignore" 3 times.  Kept up this procedure with the following results
5 x first error
2 x second error
3 x first error

Got to Disk Druid:

This time round I tried to delete the first partition (128MB foreign)

Received the following unhandled exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File /usr/lib/anaconda/iw/partition_gui.py, line 952, in deleteCb
   self.refresh()
 File /usr/lib/anaconda/iw/partition_gui.py, line 985, in refresh
  autopart.doPartitioning(self.diskset, self.partitions)
 File /usr/lib/anaconda/autopart.py, line 1024, in doPartitioning
  deletePart(diskset, delete)
 File /usr/lib/anaconda/autopart.py, line 902, in deletePart
  disk = diskset.disks[delete.drive]
KeyError, hda

I hope this helps
