There seem to be two different things mix in this patch:
First, there seems to be demand for a new feature, namely supporting this
strange "dual GPT/MSDOS" partition table. This is clearly a feature request
and needs to be done via Fate and not bugzilla. There will be no progress in
implementing this feature unless it is in fate and approved.
Second, something messes up Rudis system during update. During update,
yast2-storage does only calls "parted .... print" which certainly
does not do any harm to the content of a partition. After looking through
the log I find some thing strange, there are two partitions (sda1 and sda3)
with the boot flag set. So far this was not excpected by libstorage and it
claims all partitions on GPT as partitions of type "EFI boot". The wrong
classification of sda3 as "EFI boot" probably leads bootloader to treat
sda3 as boot partition instead of sda1. I fixed libstorage now not to
mis-detect any partitions on GPT with boot flag set as EFI unless they also
contain a fat filesystem.
Reassigned to maintainer of bootloader to check if there are any other
problems with bootloader and such a strange disk setup.
