Hi,

Reiserfs doesn't need fsck'ing. They made a special fsck'ish tool that was
only needed for very bad situations but was otherwise discouraged to use. So
the old non-reiser fsck complained when it was presented with a reiser fs to
check. On my LM6.0 sytem I also installed reiserfs myself and had '0' in the
fstab fsck field and I never had problems.
Now I switched to LM72 and I see they allow the check, I suppose they have a
reiser aware fsck since I don't see the complaints anymore.
