Hi, The reason you cannot see it is due to no Apple drivers being on it, even if you have a HFS partition. I tried the exact same thing, and kicked myself after I found this out as this wasn't the setup I wanted.
I think if you do all the partitioning with apples Drive Setup program, where the drivers will be created along with the Linux partitions, then it'll probably work. I haven't tried it myself as I've gone to far into my setup to go back now. Though I may try another spare drive soon. One last thing, make sure you format the Apple partition as HFS and NOT HFS+ else you cannot access it when in Linux. I also have a beige G3. Just out of interest do you happen to have a 3dfx Voodoo card in your G3?
