This guy knows his stuff. Last time I used reiser I didn't pray enough

Yeah ... definitely take note of that sucker , if you ever did dd
if=/dev/someresierdrive of=/home/somemountedreiserfs/img for backup
purposes, just either give up the idea of a rebuild tree, or find a
young lamb to slaughter, ,,,, just in case praying ain't sufficient.

and possibly random files all over your file system who's names have
no resemblance to their content, which used to be in an uncompressed
reiser, and now is unpacked all over its host FS.
all the best :)
