Description of problem:
The parted manual page lists the available partition flags as the options to the
set command:

set partition flag state
    change the state of the flag on partition to state. Flags supported are:
    "boot", "root", "swap", "hidden", "raid", "lvm", "lba" and "palo".
    state should be either "on" or "off"

In the info docs, the type of partition table / disk label that the flag applies
to is also listed:

 -- Command: set NUMBER FLAG STATE
     Changes a flag on the partition with number NUMBER.  A flag can be
     either "on" or "off".  Some or all of these flags will be
     available, depending on what disk label you are using:

    `boot'
          (Mac, MS-DOS, PC98) - should be enabled if you want to boot
          off the partition.  The semantics vary between disk labels.
          For MS-DOS disk labels, only one partition can be bootable.
          If you are installing LILO on a partition that partition must
          be bootable.  For PC98 disk labels, all ext2 partitions must
          be bootable (this is enforced by Parted).

    `lba'
          (MS-DOS) - this flag can be enabled to tell MS DOS, MS
          Windows 9x and MS Windows ME based operating systems to use
          Linear (LBA) mode.
[... etc etc ...]

This can be confusing for users who only check the man page & then attempt to
apply a flag to an innapropriate partition table type.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
parted-1.8.1-6.el5

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Read the fine manual (man parted)
  
Actual results:
Partition flags that are specific to certain partition table types are not
listed as such.

Expected results:
Partition flags that are specific to certain partition table types are clearly
documented.
