You need to format the drive using APM (Apple Partition Map). GPT is only supported on Intel Macs. You will need to use Disk Utility to do this.

To do this you will have to do the following: Utilities -> Disk Utility.
-
In Disk Utility, do the following: Partition -> Options. If it did not select GPT by default, you will need to do this manually or you will have to reformat the drive if you did not catch this. Do not change it if it picked the right partition table.

Once you do this, you can install the OS on the new hard drive.

When you have opened Disk Utility, do the following: Partition -> Options. If APM is not selected, do this manually or you will need to format the drive a second time. If it caught it and chose APM, do not change it. Once the drive is formatted, an OS can be installed.

What you want to do is boot into the OS CD, go under Utilities, find Disk Utility and the new drive. Under Partition, check what it says under Options. If it selected the right one under here, don't change it. Format the drive and it will show as a usable drive. That should do the trick.

Go to Disk Utility -> Partition -> Options and then select APM, partition the drive again, and install OS X. That should work - I had a similiar problem on a PB G3 some time ago and this solved it.
