[plug] reiserfs

[Bill Kenworthy]

Reccomended. Just installed Mandrake 7.2 and somehow damaged the rpm
database.  This sometimes causing the machine to continually access the
HD and eventually became unable to access.  Rebooted (reset switch) half
a dozen times before I twigged and rebuilt the db.  Came straight back
up each time with no problems in dmesg or elsewhere that I have
noticed.  Previously it would have caused a 20 minute fsck of the hard
disks each time, severely limiting the number of times I could try and
trash the machine in a night!
