No Option to create Boot Partition

I've noticed with the latest ArchLinux .iso that in cfdisk, there is no option to make a partition bootable. Will this be a problem later in the installation or should I use a different method?

Re: No Option to create Boot Partition

Normally when you navigate to [Type], you will see a list of partition options. You can select "EFI System" or "Bios Boot". Doesn't this show up in cfdisk?
