I believe it is fixed in the latet "pre" patch, not the currently released 
2.4.5. As I posted to the list about two months ago, I have reiser on root 
under Debian. It was a bit tricky to install; I had to duplicate an already 
installed system from one disk to the new reiserfs partition. However, the 
speed and reliability are worth it! 

I am hoping that the Debian boot floopies will have reiser a an option when 
they are next updated with 2.4.x kernel. I'll be asking about that 
on Monday in Bordeaux... ;)
