I reworded the ticket. Basically the list of partitions would remain the same. This enhancement would simply un-check BFS volumes that don't contain Haiku/BeOS/Zeta. The user would still be able to check them in the odd-case of running bootman prior to Installer.

    initial v3  
    1 r37444.  Currently, bootman will select all partitions. A sensible default would be to exclude BFS partitions that do not contain {{{ system/haiku_loader }}} or {{{ beos/system/zbeos }}}.  I guess non-BFS volumes could still default to selected.
     1r37444.  This enhancement will add some more intelligent logic for selecting the partitions that the user will actually want to boot.
