Did you re-run mkinitrd before doing the zipl command? Most likely you don't have reiserfs support in the initrd, and it's seeing the reiserfs as minix file system instead.

I made a new minidisk, formatted it, put a partition on it, and then performed a mkreiserfs. I mounted it and use the following command to copy everything over. tar -clpSf - . | (cd mnt ; tar -xpSf - ) I chroot to /mnt and performed a zipl. I updated FSTAB and reboot. Here is what I get: Loading kernel/drivers/s390/block/dasd_mod.ko dasd=150-15f Loading kernel/drivers/s390/block/dasd_eckd_mod.ko dasd(eckd): 0.0.0150: 3390/0A(CU:3990/01) Cyl:3338 Head:15 Sec:224 Using cfq io scheduler dasd(eckd): 0.0.0150: (4kB blks): 2403360kB at 48kB/trk compatible disk layout dasda:VOL1/ ROOT01: dasda1 dasd(eckd): 0.0.0151: 3390/0A(CU:3990/01) Cyl:3338 Head:15 Sec:224 dasd(eckd): 0.0.0151: (4kB blks): 2403360kB at 48kB/trk compatible disk layout dasdb:VOL1/ LVM001: dasdb1 dasd(eckd): 0.0.0152: 3390/0A(CU:3990/01) Cyl:3338 Head:15 Sec:224 dasd(eckd): 0.0.0152: (4kB blks): 2403360kB at 48kB/trk compatible disk layout dasdc:VOL1/ LVM002: dasdc1 dasd(eckd): 0.0.015f: 3390/0A(CU:3990/01) Cyl:500 Head:15 Sec:224 dasd(eckd): 0.0.015f: (4kB blks): 360000kB at 48kB/trk compatible disk layout dasdp:VOL1/ SWAP01: dasdp1 Waiting for device /dev/dasda1 to appear: ok rootfs: major=94 minor=1 devn=24065 rootfs: /sys/block/dasda/dasda1 major=94 minor=1 devn=24065 MINIX-fs: blocksize too small for device.
