I saw the same problem as Ruairi this weekend, up to date as of st least
Saturday night. So there are three possible explanations I see for it
working for you...
-Either it was fixed over the weekend and the installer fix hadn't
percolated out to us,
-You didn't install the standard 2.4.x kernel, you installed the 2.2.x
kernel or perhaps even the 2.4.1-linus version of the kernel (though I
doubt that).
-There is some bug that we tripped over and you didn't. I believe I did a
very vanilla install that time, because I was already suspicious that
reiserfs wouldn't boot with 2.4.1, having tried copying my root fs to a
reiserfs fs and booting late 2.3.x kernels, and failed at it for reasons
I've yet to understand.
