jldugger@jldugger:~ $ mkfs.reiserfs /dev/sda1
jldugger@jldugger:~ $ sudo fdisk /dev/sda The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 24321. There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024, and could in certain setups cause problems with: 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO) 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

Like I said, someone wondered about inodes, but reiser doesn't report them regularly.
Also, is there a way to set the reply-to on this mailing list to kclug@kclug.org instead of the original author of a particular sender? On more than one occasion I've meant to send to the list and sent a direct reply instead, so I thought I'd see if there's some option I'm missing that could help the absent minded like myself.

I no longer actively use the reiserfs as the ext3 is more convenient to use and offers comparable performance and protection, but could probably help debug your problem. It was the first stable resilient fs offered for Linux and is quite mature, although I've seen fud/uninformed/confused statements about resierfs.
Actually, while ext2 is tried and true, reiserfs was the first stable journaled filesystem for Linux. And reiserfs 4 (which is too new to use for production) beats the pants off of all the other file systems.
