Looks like you need to get a version of the kernel that supports reiserfs. Me, I'd compile my own, but I believe you can get versions of the kernel that support various extra options. (Hey, question for the list: as I understand it, there's the vanilla kernel, and then there's, say, the kernel with reiser support, the kernel with xyz support, etc. If you need multiples of these, do you have to compile it yourself, or is there a way to get that pre-packaged? I personally find some perverse joy in reading through all the options and rolling my own, but I'm curious about how the other side lives.) -- monique Unless you need to share ultra-sensitive super-spy stuff with me, please don't email me directly.
