I just installed SL5 on a file server with pre-existing reiserfs partitio
ns
which I want to preserve.

According to the man page, reiserfs is supported by mount but when I give

the command I get the following error:

> mount -t reiserfs /dev/sda1 /mnt
mount: unknown filesystem type 'reiserfs'

Also, if I issue the lsmod command, reiserfs is not listed.

What is the correct way to enable reiserfs support under SL5?

Thank you
