By the way i suspect reiserfsck has fixed the partiton but that there is something amiss in the bootup scripts, or in having the repair recognised properly. If I had the machine for a half a day it'd be interesting to fix, but by then you will be up and ruuning on a new filesystem :-)
maybe not then..
I'll keep Gentoo as is, test-knockabout, non-critical system, to learn its ways.
You'll likely get another crack at it yet! :-) We'll see how far we get with Reiser.
