Problem with GPT Bios Partition

Hello everyone,

I'm using FAI 5.0 and need a special partition layout for our centos kvm
installation.

The partition schema need to be like this:

GPT /dev/sda1 2048 6143 2M BIOS boot partition /dev/sda2 6144 16783359 8G
Linux swap /dev/sda3 16783360 17831935 512M Microsoft basic data /boot
/dev/sda4 17831936 49289215 15G Microsoft basic data / /dev/sda5 49289216
7812456414 3.6T Linux LVM


Unfortunately I'm unable to create /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda5 with the
disk_config.

I don't know what "fstype" I have to enter, that FAI will partitionate
/dev/sda1 to "BIOS boot partition" (fdisk type "4").
fstype "efi" and "bios" will run into an error:
https://data.bortfeldt.net/f/d9b3239df0/


My current config_disk-File looks like this:

# <type> <mountpoint> <size>   <fs type> <mount options> <misc options>

disk_config disk1 disklabel:gpt-bios bootable:3 fstabkey:uuid

primary - 2 efi -
primary swap 8192 swap rw
primary /boot 512 ext4 rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro
primary / 15360 ext4 rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro
logical - 1- - -


So is anyone here who can help me out with my disk_configuration so that
FAI will partitionate like the schema above?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Denny
