Introduction to Reiser4

The Reiser4 file system is a very fast atomic file system developed by Namesys. The Reiser4 package contains various utilities for managing reiser4fs (version 4) partitions.

Project Homepage: http://www.namesys.com/

  • libaal - library, that provides application abstraction mechanism. It includes device abstraction, libc independence code, etc.
  • kernel patch - stable kernel patch, that provides kernel level support of Reiser4fs (version 4 only) partitions.

Dependencies

Required

  • libaal >= 1.0.5
  • kernel patch for your kernel version

Optional

  • grub >= 0.97-reiser4-20050808

Non-Multilib, Multilib

  • Compile your kernel with reiser4-for-2.6.<x>-patch

gunzip -c reiser4-for-2.6.<x>.patch.gz | patch -p1

Compile kernel with reiser4 support turned on.

there are "<x>" is your kernel minor version from the list of patches above

Note

please make sure

that you have checked in

   Code maturity level options  
   ---> Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers

and NOT checked in

   Kernel hacking ---> Use 4Kb for kernel stacks instead of 8Kb


  • Boot with new kernel with reiser4 support turned on.

Non-Multilib

  • Compile the libaal:
./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/lib &&
make

Install the libaal

make install


  • Compile the package:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/sbin --libdir=/lib &&
make


Install the package

make install



Multilib

Soon

32Bit

  • Compile the libaal:
CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/lib &&
make

Install the libaal

make install


  • Compile the package:
CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/sbin --libdir=/lib &&
make

Install the package

make install

N32

  • Compile the libaal:
CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/lib32 &&
make

Install the libaal

make install


  • Compile the package:
CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/sbin --libdir=/lib32 &&
make

Install the package

make install

64Bit
