Yes, got delayed because management decided quality control was more
important than meeting the release date, after top management (not
SUSE's) decided to turn the package management upside down not much
before beta1.

I am booting straight from reiser /dev/md0, which is a raid1. SUSE
doesn't use devfs. Worked out of the box for the past X years. So it can
be done, but using vanilla kernels when you want something stable is
dicy.
