In reply to:

One last question ... should I add a journal file to the root file system? Currently I've got it on drive0 and drive1. The box complains about not having a journal file when mounting root, but remembers to mount it as ext2 instead.

Also does this new kernel almost support reiserfs? This was in the log:

Tried to mount /dev/hda4 as reiserfs but got error 19



I haven't tried creating a journal file on any of the other partitions since they get overwritten with every upgrade and they aren't large enough for the fsck times to be an issue. You can safely ignore that message about not finding a journal.

The new kernel does not support reiserfs. I actually ripped out all the reiser code that the empeg guys had added in since some of it conflicts with ext3. The reason you get that error 19 message appears to be because the player or stock init attempts to mount as reiser first and then falls back to ext2. Should be safe to ignore it.
