What I wanted to do (as a beginner of Linux):

use Windows Vista in C:
use second partition sda2 formatted with ReiserFS as /
use third partition sda3 formatted with ReiserFS as /usr
install bootloader in second partition (hd0,1)
activate bootloader in Windows via EasyBCD
This did not work.

Second try:
use third partition sda2 formatted with ext3 as /
install bootloader in third partition (hd0,2)
activate bootloader in Windows via EasyBCD
This worked.

I do not know what I did wrong the first time. Maybe it is wrong to use 
ReiserFS as a file system or it is wrong to use more than one partition 
or did I use a wrong combination? But then the installer should prevent 
me from doing something like that. What would have happened if I would 
have used hda0 for installing the bootloader? If it would have failed I 
maybe would have had a problem to restore my MBR as I use an OEM version 
of Windows Vista.

But now Ubuntu 8.10 works fine and I will start to learn and explore.
