So reiserfs thinks the devices is 64K larger than it really is. I wonder how that happened. > > Does it help? What could I do now? Thanks! It helps that we know why you get these errors. It looks like you should be able to fix it with resize_reiserfs. Looking at the man page I have, you could umount /whatever resize_reiserfs -s -64K /dev/md1 mount /whatever However I recommend reading the man page yourself, as this isn't the sort of thing you want to get wrong.
