Salam, CentOs or RedHat flavours donot come up with "Reiserfs support by default". u can install it using like yum install enablerepo=centosplus reiserfs-utils please confirm the command as i used this long time ago.... Suppose, u want to /var to be reiserfs supported, u have to format /var with resierfs, there is no need to format whole OS. Long time, i used this scenario, but unfortunately donot remember the procedure i know when i did, it was tricky.... soon as i get any help i will update.
