The cure for this is simple, but not quick, and permanent.

        unmount /dev/hdxn (if mounted)
        mke2fs -j /dev/hdxn
        tune2fs -c 0 -i 0 /dev/hdxn
        reinstall software on /dev/hdxn

I encountered exactly this same problem.  reiserfs lost its marbles
after changing unrelated partitions via fdisk, and there was no way to
use the reiserfs partition again.

So, I reverted to ext3, and I will never touch reiserfs again.  ext3
doesn't loose its marbles.

HTH,
