Find yourself an Apple IIGS motherboard.  These can be found cheap on
comp.sys.apple2.marketplace.  Replace the IIe motherboard with he IIGS one.

Now run GS/OS.  Use Advanced Disk Utilities to partition the disk. Note that
with GS/OS, you can use HFS, a filesystem that breakes the 32mb barrier.  That
means you can have one 32MB ProDOS partition and have the rest as a big HFS
partition.

I like HFS a lot and have never had a problem with it.  I just wish the IIGS
can boot off an HFS partition so that I did not have to mess with ProDOS at
all.

I like HFS a lot too however on the GS side there are no utilities to
straighten out a HFS Partitioned drive.
