WEll one thing that jumps out at me, and you're probably going to have a
million people tell you this, but if you're booting off of a reiserfs then you
should *not* have it as a module. I mean, what's the point in having it as a
module if you're going to be using it 100% of the time? Just compile it in with
the kernel. But anyway, like i was saying, if it's a module then that means
that the kernel can't use it to load /boot, so how's it going to use it to load
any modules?

I think that's accurate, anyway. Even if the reasoning is not quite right,
still i remember reading that you don't want to make your /boot partition of
the type that is supported by a modular part of the kernel.

So fix that, build it right in.
