Hi Edward, I figured out that grub-0.97 with current reiser4 patch can't
compile with reiser4progs above 1.0.5 because of "objplug" and some more
dependencies.

Wow,
I thought you've forgotten about grub+reiser4 already.. ;)

Current set I could compile against reiser4progs but I've been geting a
linking error about libreiser4-minimal this looks like:

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.3.2/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
skipping incompatible
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.3.2/../../../libreiser4-minimal.a when
searching for -lreiser4-minimal

I made a few changes and now grub-0.97 can compile against latest
reiser4progs-1.0.7 but I'm still getting the same error at link stage:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.3.2/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
skipping incompatible
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.3.2/../../../libreiser4-minimal.a when
searching for -lreiser4-minimal

Any idea, what compatibillity is violeted

It seems, that I was inaccurate when releasing reiser4progs>1.0.5
and some version numbers remain not updated. Would you please
grep for "1.0.5" in the latest packages?

Thanks!
Edward.

Regards, Sinisa
p.s. There is a little grub(reiser4progs-1.0.5 -1.0.7) - patch in attachment

Hallo, Edward here Sinisa(Serbia),


Hello.

 I've foundout reiserfs until now has been better then ext3 for me,and I
home
reiser4 will continue such tradition.
So I'm disappointed with fortune of Hans and reiser4, I think he has BAD
luck...
I've some programing experience in kernel programing and I'm intresting in
programming support for reiser4 in GRUB, or may be important things(in
your
opinion)


Yes, it is important.

 Would you have some words to me,how to begin, where to start etc.
There is a reiser4 patch for grub-0.97. It can be found here:
http://ftp.icm.edu.pl/packages/linux-reiserfs/reiser4progs/grub/

But I have heard that there are some problems with this.
I don't know what is wrong: I didn't test it. It would be great
to figure out and fix it. Here you can find the instructions for
grub+reiser4 installation:

First test it in "safe mode" (grub shell).
Try grub shell commands (root, cat, ...) to work with filesystem (reiser4).
Use gdb to figure out what is wrong.
Please, ask, if something is not clear..

Thanks!
Edward.
