You might be able to build the ReiserFS code as if it was an external module, this is the trick I used with the Areca SATA RAID driver, although you need to make sure the code doesn't require access to internal kernel headers. You need to have the kernel-(smp-)devel packages installed, not the kernel-source package. Basically, if you have the reiserfs source files in a directory, do: $ make CONFIG_REISERFS_FS=m -C /usr/src/kernels/<kernel version> \ M=/path/to/reiserfs/sources modules $ make CONFIG_REI..... modules_install As I said, this worked with the Areca drivers, not sure if it will work for the ReiserFS drivers, but it's probably worth a try.
