Try "linux reiserfs selinux=0".  Fedora Core 3 defaults to having SE Linux 
enabled, but ReiserFS does not work properly with SE Linux so you have to 
disable SE Linux if you want to use ReiserFS.

I am not sure whether this applies to upgrades (it definately applies for a 
fresh install).  Try it out and let us know if it doesn't solve the problem.
