Patch to fix the problem

[Comment 2 Pacho Ramos 2009-02-11 08:46:20 UTC]

I thought that gentoo-sources wasn't providing reiser4 (and I think that still is not providing it) :-/

[Comment 3 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) 2009-02-12 21:06:02 UTC]

Indeed, gentoo-sources does not include reiser4. You must have patched it in, and we can't support kernels that are patched in that way.
