Hi Glenn,
If you mean installing grub on a Reiser4 partion: used it a few years
ago on my Gentoo based systems. Stopped using it because it was not
entirely stable, and apart from that it is nice to have a boot partition
that can be accessed with a rescue disk that doesn't have Reiser4
support, so I now use ext2 for /boot.
See:
http://sys-admin.org/Reiser4-Gentoo-Sources.html
for instructions, on the bottom of the page there are some notes on
Grub.
http://gentoo-overlays.zugaina.org/zen-overlay/portage/sys-boot/grub-reiser4/grub-reiser4-0.97.20050808.ebuild
for an ebuild
http://ftp.icm.edu.pl/packages/linux-reiserfs/reiser4progs/
for a patch on grub 0.97 (original location was
ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiser4progs/ )
Cheers,
Arend

May be you should look into the wiki (http://reiser4.wiki.kernel.org) or
do a google like thing (Grub R...4).
Also, there will be a manual for this for a forked R4 file system, which
to name I'm not allowed on this mailing list.
Have fun

Hello.
grub-0.97+reiser4 requires some fixups.
Also Jeff Chua promised us grub-2+reiser4,
if I understood him correctly.
Thanks,
Edward.
