Hello again :)

I downloaded the recent patches for 3.2 to 3.5 kernels, and applied it
to my 3.4.2 kernel. It results in the following --

Hello,

The vfs layer had undergone some changes between versions 3.4 and 3.5, so a
patch against 3.5 won't work when applied to 3.4 or earlier versions.
Instead, please, try the attached patch.

Regards,
Ivan Shapovalov.

Thankyou! It works. This should be added to the SF project.

I'll test reiser4 with my root partition (without compression).
