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.
