"This BIOS boot partition is only necessary on non-EFI x86 systems
whose boot device is a GPT-labelled disk."

Isn't a BIOS boot type partition?
I found in wikipedia[1] that gparted call it a "bios_grub" partition.
Is it the same in Anaconda?
I agree that should be added in the doc (but I haven't read them all, is it?).
