The optional parameter bootable is added in gpt command to set the
partition attribute flag "Legacy BIOS bootable"
This flag is used in extlinux and so in with distro to select
the boot partition where is located the configuration file
(please check out doc/README.distro for details).
With this parameter, U-Boot can be used to create the boot partition
needed for device using distro.
example of use:
setenv partitions "name=u-boot,size=60MiB;name=boot,size=60Mib,bootable;\
name=rootfs,size=0"
> gpt write mmc 0 $partitions
> part list mmc 0
Partition Map for MMC device 0 -- Partition Type: EFI
Part Start LBA End LBA Name

> part list mmc 0 -bootable devplist
> printenv devplist
devplist=2
Then the distro scripts will search extlinux in partition 2
and not in the first partition.

short strings can be used in type parameter of gpt command

partitions = name=boot,size=0x6bc00,type=data; \

example of use with gpt command :
partitions = uuid_disk=${uuid_gpt_disk}; \

Previously, Linux used the same GUID for the data partitions as Windows
(Basic data partition: EBD0A0A2-B9E5-4433-87C0-68B6B72699C7).
This created problems when dual-booting Linux and Windows in UEFI-GPT
Setup, so a new GUID (Linux filesystem data:
0FC63DAF-8483-4772-8E79-3D69D8477DE4) was defined jointly by GPT fdisk
and GNU Parted developers.

Currently, an environment variable must be used to store the randomly
generated UUID for each partition. This is not necessary, so make storing
the UUID optional. Now passing uuid_disk and uuid are optional when random
UUIDs are enabled.
