For the SONY VAIOs and older kernels you had to choose the boot option ide2=0x180,0x386, if this doesn't work try another installation method (some examples are in the Debian install docs and in my Linux-Mobile-Guide http://mobilix.org/howtos.html)

There is a set of unofficial Debian install floppies for ReiserFS somewhere, see Google.
