Description:

This update for kiwi fixes the following issue:

  • Normalize partedGetPartitionID output (bsc#1136744) (#675)

This commit ensures the partedGetPartitionID output returns the same partition ID codes with or without the presence of sgdisk utility. It basically trusts partition names provided by KIWI to map partitions to specific IDs.

Additionally this commit also makes sure that the partition stated to be of ef type in config.<mac> is named legacy, to be consistent with the partedGetPartitionID expectations.
