Hi there,


I'm trying to build 2.4.1 with reiserfs on my Motorola PowerStack II.

don't bother, reiserfs does not work on either 64 bit or big endian
archechures.  (basically anything but x86)

From the FAQ at namesys I understand that ReiserFS works on alpha.

Alpha is as 64bit as it gets....
Not only has is sizeof(void *)==8, but even sizeof(bool) is 8 :-)
(imagine that: using 64 bits to store a single one!)

But: EHASHCOLLISION seems to be missing from include/asm-ppc/errno.h
It's present in asm-alpha and asm-i386

Anyone working on reiserfs support for ppc at the moment?

jeffm of suse is working on it, he has it to where any attempt to
write to a reiserfs causes an immediate kernel panic.

see http://penguinppc.org/~jeffm/  for status updates on this.

Thanks for the info,

So far, I got 2.4.1 to build, but the init of my ncr scsi controller
no longer works, so for the time being, I'm bound to a 2.2 kernel.
