According to David Empson, ADU always installs a blank
driver partition for Macintosh for HFS (dunno for ProDOS).

Theoretically, you can use the Mac software to simply
install a driver into the driver partition.

However, the best way to go is to, when installing IIGS
partitions using ADU, also use GenEx.  That way, ADU
will make the hard drive Mac readble in the first place!
