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?

b      Toggle the bootable flag of the current partition.  This allows you to select which primary partition is bootable on the drive.  This command
              may not be available for all partition label types.

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?
