I've got a partition section like this. 

<partitioning_advanced>
        <fstab>
        <!-- Read data from existing fstab. If multiple root partitions are
        found, use the one specified below. Otherwise the first root
        partition is taken -->
        <root_partition>/dev/sda6</root_partition>
        <initialize config:type="boolean">false</initialize>
        <use_existing_fstab config:type="boolean">true</use_existing_fstab>
        <!-- all partitions found in fstab will be formatted and mounted
        by default unless a partition is listed below with different
        settings -->
        <partitions config:type="list">
                <partition>
                        <format config:type="boolean">false</format>
                        <mount>/home</mount>
                </partition>
                <partition>
                        <format config:type="boolean">true</format>
                        <filesystem>ext3</filesystem>
                </partition>
        </partitions>
        </fstab>
</partitioning_advanced>

It will reformat root, but keep home, which sounds similar to what you want to 
do.
