Hi,
I had a reiser4 partition.
While it was mounted, I deleted the partition with
cfdisk (yes, blame on me ;)
Then I rebooted the machine. I got the following oops
on booting (That's my first problem):
May 18 17:11:07 lfs kernel: Resume Machine: disabled

(hda13 was the reiser4 partition, before I deleted it.
Here my bootscript tries to boot the non-existing partition)

Now, I ignored it and continued booting.
I wanted to create a new reiserfs-3.6 filesystem on the already
exiting hda8. I fired up mkreiserfs:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> mkreiserfs /dev/hda8
mkreiserfs 3.6.11 (2003 www.namesys.com)
A pair of credits:
Joshua Macdonald wrote the first draft of the transaction manager. Yuri Rupasov
did testing and benchmarking, plus he invented the r5 hash (also used by the
dcache code). Yura Rupasov, Anatoly Pinchuk, Igor Krasheninnikov, Grigory
Zaigralin, Mikhail Gilula, Igor Zagorovsky, Roman Pozlevich, Konstantin
Shvachko, and Joshua MacDonald are former contributors to the project.
Oleg Drokin was the debugger for V3 during most of the time that V4 was under
development, and was quite skilled and fast at it. He wrote the large write
optimization of V3.
Guessing about desired format.. Kernel 2.6.5 is running.
Format 3.6 with standard journal
Count of blocks on the device: 732430
Number of blocks consumed by mkreiserfs formatting process: 8234
Blocksize: 4096
Hash function used to sort names: "r5"
Journal Size 8193 blocks (first block 18)
Journal Max transaction length 1024
inode generation number: 0
UUID: dd3f1273-77a2-4a25-9289-384ba5a723e8
ATTENTION: YOU SHOULD REBOOT AFTER FDISK!
ALL DATA WILL BE LOST ON '/dev/hda8'!
Continue (y/n):y
Initializing journal - 0%....20%....40%....60%....80%....100%
Syncing..
mkreiserfs is stuck in unkillable D state at this point.
(That's my second problem).
Kernel is 2.6.5 with reiser4 snapshot 2004.03.26
