Then make sure you have reiserfsprogs too. You'll need them. I've never tried using ReiserFS on Potato, though, so I don't know if you can. If you have a 2.4 kernel working, I'd think you're golden though. You might need to get a Woody source package for reiserfsprogs and compile it under Potato. > BTW, I'm open to better sugestions here.

I run it on my root and reiserfs on my other disk. I haven't had any problems with either under 2.4.6 or 2.4.9 running Woody. I just installed 2.4.10, so I'll have to see.
