Thanks but I think this won't help me as I want to resize partions 1-3 and 
format with ext3 instead of reiserfs. Please read my first post. I already 
used something like you proposed and it works fine if all partions stay 
the same and you only want format or keep data.

In my case partions 1 -3 three change in size but the sum of their size 
stays the same, therefore allowing me to keep patition 4 as it is.

Hope I made myself clear and this is doable with autoyast.
