I believe both Xandros and Lindows install reiserfs as the default filesystem
now and the only problem I had with that was that initrd was being used and
after a kernel compile, the machine would not boot to the new kernel.  It took
me several reinstalls to figure out what the problem was and fix it.  I just
recompiled the kernel with reiserfs support built-in and did away with the
initrd.
