apple machines should use the mac-fdisk package, you can try to modify
the partitioning without clearing it completly but i don't reccommend
it, mac-fdisk is very buggy.  you do need to use it and not apple's
tools though, like any other OS you need to use the native partitioner
for the partitions, mac-fdisk makes macos partitions badly, and apples
fdisk makes linux partitions badly.
