Re: [CentOS] ReiserFS and CentOS

Under install of RHEL or CentOS type;

And you will be able to install and format ReiserFS file system. BUT be aware, ReiserFS is not SELinux compatible.

I would be really surprised if this works, considering there is no ReiserFS support in the -BOOT kernel.

You need to make changes in the anaconda code as well as rebuild the install images in order to have reiserFS/ xfs etc avaialble at install time.

One option, that usually works well, is to have a small'ish install partition for the OS, and post install build your data / storage volumes with whatever filesystem you want, using the CentOSPlus kernel on CentOS4, or the kernel-unsuported on CentOS3.
