Hi,
Is there a way to create a partition with an arbitrary partition id, 
using wic tool. We want to create a disk image using wic for Altera 
Cyclone V. It require the partition id to be set to a particular hex 
value for the partition it reads the boot loader binary from. The 
partition id does get set automatically to the correct value depending 
on the value of fstype (eg. 0x83 for ext3 or 0x0c for fat32), but I 
couldn't find a way to set it to an arbitrary value.

Best regards,
Fahad Usman.
