Scratch my previous issue, Ed. It is *not* related to your new Reiser4 software release 4.0.1 module nor reiser4progs. My usual development environment is a modified non-systemd Debian Sid (unstable) on a Reiser4 root partition. The kernels built won't boot in *that* particular instance due to a least one other additional issue: target filesystem does not have requested /sbin/init However, I tried one of my recently built reiser4-patched kernels into a systemd Debian Sid -- also running on reiser4 root partition -- and the system booted and behaved as you predicted. < https://pbs.twimg.com/media/COccj66UAAA7mfp.png:large > Sorry about that, Ed. It's my fault for only testing in the build environment (although I had not had an issue with reiser4 builds until this kernel 4.x and new 4.0.1 software combination change).

I usually build a reiser4 module in Debian and make sure that initramfs-tools are aware of it during kernel installation by editing /etc/initramfs-tools/modules, adding directive: reiser4 Otherwise, reiser4 module will not be included in the initrd and the system will not boot.
