i severly hope you mean /dev/hda2 or /dev/hda3, if you really mean
/dev/hda1 that would be your problem, mac partitions tables have this
peculiar setup where the partition table itself IS a partition, the
first partition. thus /dev/hda1 is always your partition table, not
your first partition.

yup /dev/hda1 this is your problem, unless you used DOS partition
tables to partition your disk (generally not a good idea unless you
know what your doing) you just trashed your partition table.
repartition your disk again, but this time don't mkfs /dev/hda1.
just out of curiosity why didn't you let dbootstrap take care of the
mkfs steps?
