No, it's not possible to set different partition types. The tool setup_storage hardcodes the types in file Commands.pm in subroutine setup_partitions(). In the end we call a parted command with parameters that creates the partition and sets its type. See format.log for the exact commands.
But you caould write a hook that changes the partition type after the partitions were created. >>>>> On Thu, 29 Jan 2026 16:54:13 +0100, Christoph Pleger >>>>> <[email protected]> said: > Hello, > is it possible to set a partition type (NOT the partition table type) > explicitly with setup-storage?
