Guillaume,
I know all that, but (with network.img ):
[root@rescue]# modprobe reiserfs
Can't locate strict.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5(blah-blah).) at
/usr/bin/packdrake line 3.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/packdrake line 3.
can't find module reiserfs
doesn't look good, does it?
