Depending on what you mean by larger ...
My own linux box has 2 reiser partitions, the OS (which doesn't get backed
up) and my personal data (which does ;) [~ 8G ]).
And we've got a number crucnher that has 2 reiser partitions (6 and 18G)
and they back up just fine.
Of course, you have to use tar to make a backup, since there is no dump for
reiser. ^^^^^^

Well, I for one am very happy with it.
1) it actually *is* fatser than ext2
2) never having to fsck an 18G partition after a hard crash
(and yes, I know, linux boxes shouldn';t hard crash, but then, you
shouldn't be playing with alpha and beta level kernel drivers ;) )
