Ok, So I can see in the boot screen that reisfer sees a 3.6 journal on boot it pauses for a while then I get the error outlined below. Has anyone successfully used 2.6.9 on an 8.2 system. Also I saw something about ACL's in one post I haven't selected the extended options for reisfer, and my /etc/fstab entry is still the 8.2 default /dev/hda3 / reiserfs defaults 1 1
Any ideas? anyone

Hi, I'm trying to compile a kernel for my 8.2 system. I thought that I would try 2.6.9, but It won't mount the root filesystem.
I use grub and here is my entry in grub
title linux-2.6.9 kernel (hd0,2)/boot/bzImage-2.6.9 root=/dev/hda3 showopts splash=silent
I also use reiserfs 3.6 which I compiled into the kernel to eliminate any problem I might have with using an initrd.
I get the following error just after it tries to mount the filesystem
ide failed opcode was: unknown ide0 reset: success hda read_intr: status=0x59 { Driveready SeekComplete DataRequestError} hda read_intr: error=0x10 { SectorIdNotFound } LDAsect=116966416 sector=116966416
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown block (3,3)
I haven't done this for a long time, but thought I'd like to try out the preemptive kernel. I have also upgraded:
(installed) module-init-tools - module-init-tools 3.0-pre10
I couldn't get anything using reiserfsck -V 2>&1|grep reiserfsprogs, but reiserfsck -V gives 3.6.4. Everything else is >= to the minimum versions specified.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Oh and build process:
1. make bzImage 2. make modules 3. make modules_install 4. copy image and system map to /boot.
Regards Jeff
Try compiling 2.6.7 (2.6.8 and 2.6.8.1 won't burn cd's right) and see if you get the same error. Maybe it is a general 2.6.x kernel *****MAYBE*****
Ok, have tried using knoppix with 2.6.7 kernel and can't mount /dev/hda3, however I can mount it using the SuSE 9.2 live eval, so do SuSE add any extras that might not be in the standard kernel with respect to reiserfs? Jeff
