Hi I install my system from CDs and layou the patirions as follows: a7lpp:/var/opt/mkcdrec # parted /dev/sda print Disk geometry for /dev/sda: 0.000-70007.199 megabytes Disk label type: msdos Minor Start End Type Filesystem Flags 1 0.031 1027.595 primary Linux-swap type=82 2 1027.595 11272.170 primary reiserfs type=83 3 11272.170 69994.138 primary reiserfs boot, type=83 However, when I regenerate the system using autoyast I get: Disk geometry for /dev/sda: 0.000-70007.199 megabytes Disk label type: msdos Minor Start End Type Filesystem Flags 1 0.031 1027.595 primary Linux-swap type=82 2 1027.595 11272.170 primary reiserfs type=83 3 11272.170 69994.138 primary reiserfs type=83 The boot attribute has been lost. How can I retain this attribute? Thanks My XML is as follows: <partitioning config:type="list"> <drive> <device>/dev/sda</device> <partitions config:type="list"> <partition> <filesystem config:type="symbol">swap</filesystem> <format config:type="boolean">true</format> <mount>swap</mount> <partition_id config:type="integer">130</partition_id> <partition_nr config:type="integer">1</partition_nr> <size>auto</size> </partition> <partition> <filesystem config:type="symbol">reiser</filesystem> <format config:type="boolean">true</format> <mount>/home</mount> <partition_id config:type="integer">131</partition_id> <partition_nr config:type="integer">2</partition_nr> <size>10GB</size> </partition> <partition> <filesystem config:type="symbol">reiser</filesystem> <format config:type="boolean">true</format> <mount>/</mount> <partition_id config:type="integer">131</partition_id> <partition_nr config:type="integer">3</partition_nr> <size>max</size> </partition> </partitions> <use>all</use> </drive> </partitioning>
