Now I know why. I just didn't know because ther were always rumours here 
that the reiserfs is not stable enough, etc. But in practise, I use 
reiserfs a lot on many systems and it never had problems... So I assumed 
that the unstable thing was only rumours (because you know, ext3 is the 
"standard", so everyone uses it.) Now I see some real troube with 
ReiserFS for the first time.

By the way, I think we should test and test it again, to see if can 
include to choose in the installation without telling the lilo prompt 
the argument "reiserfs". It'll be no "default" file system, but another 
file system for users to test.
