Description

ReiserFS is, alike EXT3 and other modern filesystems, a journaling filesystem. Who ever tasted the benefits of such a filesystem would not want to miss it.

Installation

Reiserfsprogs

cd $SOURCEDIR
tar xvzf reiserfsprogs-<VERSION>.tar.gz
cd reiserfsprogs-<VERSION>
./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/sbin
make
make install
ln -sf reiserfsck /sbin/fsck.reiserfs
ln -sf mkreiserfs /sbin/mkfs.reiserfs

Creation of a ReiserFS partition

fdisk /dev/device
/sbin/mkreiserfs /dev/device

Afterwards put an entry for the partition into the /etc/fstab.
