our installer just really grep the output of mac-fdisk, not the best
behaviour, but mounting a non-bootblock partition described as bootblock
one is a working but logically incoherent behaviour of ubuntu ;-)
I don't think the partition type will pose any constraints afterall and
the ubuntu installer probably has some other methods to memorize which
partitions are bootblock and which ones are data.

(it should also be on the dvd or first cd)
the right combo should be:
1) d, 3 to delete hda3
2) c, 3P, 3P, / (or put any other name of your choice here, "bob" is ok
;-) ) to re-create it
however, please, read the howto before doing anything, ok?
