The manual mount worked:
# cat /proc/mounts
rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0
/dev/root / reiserfs rw,noatime 0 0
none /dev devfs rw 0 0
proc /proc proc rw 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0
/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /boot ext3 rw,noatime 0 0
# mount -v /dev/sda3 /mnt/boottest/
mount: you didn't specify a filesystem type for /dev/sda3
I will try type reiserfs
/dev/sda3 on /mnt/boottest type reiserfs (rw)
# cat /proc/mounts
rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0
/dev/root / reiserfs rw,noatime 0 0
none /dev devfs rw 0 0
proc /proc proc rw 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0
/dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /boot ext3 rw,noatime 0 0
/dev/sda3 /mnt/boottest reiserfs rw,noatime 0 0

Ah yes.
