The grub maintainer's stance was that reiser 4 support would not be included in grub until it was included in gentoo-sources, not any kernel in portage. The grub maintainer has been AWOL for the last 9 months or so however, so i guess it's now up to the base-system herd. I was under the impression that feature-adding patches should be sent upstream. I still think it's retarded to have a reiser 4 boot partition, but whatever stirs your pot. ;P --de. -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
