i need to format all partitions except the /work, is that possible?

if you have an existing fstab on your root partition, you can use
partitioning_advanced like suggested by Mike Marion. On openSUSE 11.2 just the
existing fstab file is enough. On pre-openSUSE 11.2 releases you need a
complete installed system.

If you don't have that, you can achieve the same by

<partition>
<create config:type="boolean">false</create>
<format config:type="boolean">true</format>
<mount>/boot</mount>
<partition_nr config:type="integer">1</partition_nr>
</partition>
...
<partition>
<create config:type="boolean">false</create>
<format config:type="boolean">false</format>
<mount>/work</mount>
<partition_nr config:type="integer">3</partition_nr>
</partition>
...

in the normal partitioning section.
The partition_nr is important to be correct
