i did it this way:
on my already running suse-system i compiled a patched kernel with
reiserfs support (using the .config from the kernel .deb, only without
scsi support, but with reiserfs).
then i booted this kernel with the root.bin initrd. then i started the
install. at the point, where the installer wants to initialize partitions,
i switched to the second vt and run mkreiserfs. then i mounted it to
/target (the installer will fail on doing this). then i switched back to
vt 1, skipped the initialize and mount partitions steps and went on.

good luck!
