I see your point, but the reason for choosing reiser was trying to be 
consistent. I figured it might create ever bigger problems (from an admin 
point of view, not the os) to mix the filsystems.

But IMHO, this seems like a kernel / partition type issue, not a 
filesystem issue..? Or maybe I'm reading the output from dmesg 
incorrectly?

Good to know that all the other disks are larger than 1.6TB too then. ;)
