	I'll try to answer your question concisely. In a word yes.

	The details are you need to install the HFS FST. From there it is a 
matter of treating it the same as any other floppy.

	If you have one of those AE HD floppy drives and the driver installed 
you can write 1.6MB Mac floppies.

	If you have a superdrive controller you can do 1.44MB Mac floppies with 
either a superdrive or the AE drive.
