Installing Directly to ReiserFS
If you want to install a new Linux system that uses ReiserFS for
system partitions, you will need to choose a distribution that
provides installation support for ReiserFS. Currently, SuSE and
Mandrake both support out-of-the-box installation. If you use Red Hat,
type linux reiserfs at the boot prompt. Reiser FS
now appears as a filesystem choice in Disk Druid. (Cory Ellenson
(http://www.ellenson.org) gets credit for
pointing out this trick to me.) By starting Red Hat in this fashion,
you can install directly onto a software RAID with ReiserFS.
Debian users who want to install directly onto ReiserFS should take a look at http://kebo.vlsm.org/debian-extra/reiserfs/. That is the best resource I could locate for Debian/ReiserFS boot media. I advise you to search for additional resources. If you have an existing system and merely want to add ReiserFS support, move on to the next section.
