Hey, I have a little comment to the handbook: It states that if one doesn't use ext2 or ext3 when using genkernel, the filesystem you use should be activated manually by using menuconfig, but when I ran genkernel with menuconfig all, my filesystem (reiserfs) was already selected. Am I wrong or should the list of which filesystems supported per default not also include reiserfs? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=7 and read the second paragraph after code listing 19 Actual Results: I found out I did not need to use menuconfig all, which was a bit confusing as I was told I had to use menuconfig all. Expected Results: :-) but instead :-?
00:30:34 <@fox2mike> bitnissen: cd /usr/share/genkernel/<your arch> 00:30:40 < bitnissen> ok <snip> 00:31:53 <@fox2mike> bitnissen: grep -i "reiser" kernel-config-2.6 00:32:24 < bitnissen> uhh, hm, lemme see, gotta write it over :-/ 00:32:33 < bitnissen> CONFIG_REISERFS_FS=y 00:32:44 < bitnissen> CONFIG_REISERFS_FS_XATTR=y Seems genkernel now has reiserfs support be default. So we need to update the list :)
We do say "might"... better to double check any way, we don't control what file systems are active by default by genkernel.
