Hello everyone, just a follow-up. With the help from Kerim I could managed my setup. The disk-label "gpt-bios" will create this special 2MB Bios-Partition at the end of the part-layout. It's not neccessary to define it in the disk_config-File.
So to create my layout as I mention in the first mail my disk_config looks like this now: # <type> <mountpoint> <size> <fs type> <mount options> <misc options> disk_config disk1 disklabel:gpt-bios bootable:3 fstabkey:uuid primary swap 8192 swap rw primary /boot 512 ext4 rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro primary / 15360 ext4 rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro Thanks everyone for helping me out!
