7.1 '--type': valid values?

["Brian K. Jones" <jonesy CS Princeton EDU>]

How does one derive a valid value for 'part --type <x>' where x is 
supposed to be a numerical value?  

For example, to kickstart an itanium box, I had to create a partition 
called /boot/efi, and it had to be of type msdos 16-bit > 32M.  I 
found someone else's kickstart file for the same architecture, and 
they used '239' as the type - but where the h*** did that come from?  
How is that derived?  Where is the documentation on this?  The 
kickstart configuration doesn't list the valid numbers for each 
acceptable filesystem type!

Thanks
