Introduction to ReiserFS

The Reiser file system is a journaling file system developed by Hans Reiser of Namesys. The ReiserFS package contains various utilities for managing reiserfs (version 3) partitions.

Non-Multilib

Compile the package:

./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/sbin &&
make


Install the package

make install &&
ln -sf reiserfsck /sbin/fsck.reiserfs &&
ln -sf mkreiserfs /sbin/mkfs.reiserfs

Multilib

This package does not provide any libraries so only one installation is needed.

32Bit

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/sbin &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
ln -sf reiserfsck /sbin/fsck.reiserfs &&
ln -sf mkreiserfs /sbin/mkfs.reiserfs

N32

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/sbin &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
ln -sf reiserfsck /sbin/fsck.reiserfs &&
ln -sf mkreiserfs /sbin/mkfs.reiserfs

64Bit

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/sbin &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
ln -sf reiserfsck /sbin/fsck.reiserfs &&
ln -sf mkreiserfs /sbin/mkfs.reiserfs

Installed Programs: debugreiserfs, mkreiserfs, reiserfsck, reiserfstune, resize_reiserfs
Installed Libraries: None
Installed Directories: None

Short Descriptions

debugreiserfs can sometimes help to solve problems with ReiserFS file systems. If it is called without options, it prints the super block of any ReiserFS file system found on the device.
mkreiserfs creates a ReiserFS file system.
reiserfsck is used to check or repair a ReiserFS file system.
reiserfstune is used for tuning the ReiserFS journal.
resize_reiserfs is used to resize an unmounted ReiserFS file system.
