Read <A HREF="#CONFIGURATION">CONFIGURATION</A> section below. <LI> <P> Compile and install kernel image and modules as usual. <LI> <P> ReiserFS utils are located in the patched kernel source tree in linux/fs/reiserfs/utils.

ReiserFS has several mount options to play with. <DL> <DT><STRONG><A NAME="item_notail">notail</A></STRONG><DD> <P> causes filesystem to work faster, especially for small appends to small files. But it wastes more disk space in that case. <DT><STRONG><A NAME="item_nolog">nolog</A></STRONG><DD> <P> turns off journalling feature of ReiserFS. This gives performance gain for some applications, but you lose fault tolerance. That is, you must properly umount your disk, or else you will have to repair the filesystem using <EM>reiserfsck(8)</EM> on the subsequent boot. <DT><STRONG><A NAME="item_resize">resize</A></STRONG><DD> <P> used for on-line ReiserFS resizing. To grow a ReiserFS online, use <P> <PRE> mount -o remount,resize=NEW_BLOCKCOUNT /mnt </PRE> <DT><STRONG><A NAME="item_replayonly">replayonly</A></STRONG><DD> <P> used internally by <EM>reiserfsck(8)</EM> to replay the journal before doing filesystem check.
