I've got a partition section like this.

       <fstab>
       <!-- Read data from existing fstab. If multiple root partitions are
       found, use the one specified below. Otherwise the first root
       partition is taken -->
       /dev/sda6
       <initialize config:type="boolean">false</initialize>
       true
       <!-- 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>

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.
