I'm not sure if YAST can install to a reiserfs root directory ("/"). You might want to format /dev/hda5 to use ext2fs, leave the other partitions unmounted for now and install a basic linux installation that will allow you to recompile the kernel. You may need to get the latest version of reiserfs to get it to work properly. Once you figure out how to set up the partitions for reiserfs (I have no experience with it since I'm waiting for a production-level version to be released), you can mount the other partitions with temporary names, move the appropriate directory contents over, and remount the partitions under their correct names. Once that's working, you can finish the rest of the installation. Christopher Reimer
