You are the man!
They had not and I am up and running, now.

Yes, I see some "garbage" all around.

I even could delete it at least ;-)
My first try was to delete it under an older kernel.
That worked but I got some broken inodes through the next reboot cycle, again.
/dev/pts and /dev/shm
So during my "second" run I leave them alone and bingo.
I could delete them with "rmdir" (inclusive .badattr) after the next boot.
Finally I have 2.4.15-pre8 + preempt + ReiserFS A-N + Andrea Arcangeli's
00_lowlatency-fixes-3 up and running.
Now it is time to go to bed, get some sleep and have a really happy birthday.
No, I do not need congratulations from all around the world...;-)
See you.
