Greetings,

I have been using Reiser4 as my primary filesystem for
some time now, and for the first time have encountered
a problem that keeps me from doing what I want to do.

I run VMware Workstation 5.0 with the virtual disk
files on my Reiser4 / partition, which happens to be a
Linux md RAID1 device.  The other day I built a new
kernel, upgrading to the -5 release of the reiser4
patches.  Either during boot or shortly after boot of
any guest OS, my workstation becomes totally
unresponsive.  Magic SysRq keys don't even work.

To narrow down the source of the problem, I applied
the Reiser4 patch to a vanilla 2.6.11 kernel tree.  I
saw the exact same issue.

I tried reverting to a previous version of the Reiser4
patch, but I get VFS errors about being unable to find
a Reiser4 filesystem on my rootdisk using any other
Reiser4 patchset.  Did the filesystem format change?

I tried recompiling the -5 release with debug enabled,
but since the machine is unresponsive, I don't see any
output.

My question...  is this a known issue?  Or should I
just keep pounding away at this until I can get some
sort of debugging information?

Thanks to you all for the always-interesting
discussion threads on this list.  And thanks, Hans,
for reiserfs and reiser4.

be seeing you.

scott
