I used to put "notail" option in /etc/fstab in the "/" formated by mkreiserfs. I thought that that option is not necessary from some time ago. Well, today, I noticed that the (2.6x at least) booting assumes that / must be ext2 if I look at /var/log/boot.msg. <7>VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem). Yet it IS reiserfs. and apparently, reiserfs still works (or maybe not infrequently) What is going on? I noticed that if I do not choose ext2, during make xconfig, nothing works. That is what I know. Thanks for any info. Hugh
