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+.
