>Description:

	The bootselector editor automatically sets up a default label for 
	all those partitions that are not marked unused.  This is done to avoid
	another problem that used to occur when the bootselector editor was
	not used to set up such labels.  The problem that now exists is there
	is no way to deselect the partition from being included in the 
	bootselector options list.  

>How-To-Repeat:

	Run sysinst.

>Fix:
	rm -rf distrib/utils/sysinst

	No, really.

	Adding a menu item to the bootselector editor menu that allowed
	particular partitions to be removed from the options that will appear
	at boot time would be sufficient.
