Hello !

I just downloaded the 2.5.72 kernel sources and applied the -mm1 patch, now I'd want 
to include Reiser4 in my kernel. I tried to compile the reiserprogs sources from the 
bk repositery, but autoconf and then ./configure failed.
I don't really know how to patch the kernel though ... do I simply have to copy the 
reiser4 folder in the kernel's /fs folder, and then apply the linux-[...].patch ? This 
one does not work on my kernel, and I don't know if it's the right way to go.
I'd just like you to make a little howto to merge reiser4 into an existing kernel (I 
don't want to download the whole Reiser4 kernel tree ...) and then correctly compile 
the reiser4progs.

Thank you in advance,
Fred

PS : What are the lilo and grub patches in the reiserprogs source tree for ? Do they 
bring boot support for reiser4 partitions, so that grub for instance will be able to 
fetch its menu.lst file from a reiser4 partition ?
