That is not the same as saying it was tested and it worked just fine, but it is the best I can do.

I'm in no position to make an official statement, but until the development process changes again, 2.6.x reiser4 patches should always work on 2.6.x.y versions. -- Jake Maciejewski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

You aren't likely to get one. It will work on lf the things that reiser4 depends on are not changed in how they operate. The official kernel doesn't work real hard to preserve external APIs much less internal ones. If it works, it works. Since no one involved in reiser4 can say with confidence what will be in the next version, we can't say for sure.
Re: latest 2.6.13 reiser4 patch
Will it work also with 2.6.13.2 kernel ? or is it only for 2.6.13 ( or 2.6.13.1 ) i couldnt find any information about this on page, and i want to be sure... I used it fine with 2.6.13.2... but my wireless card isn't supported there. (it's been included in 2.6.14x, so it was never patches against 2.6.13.. I tried backporting my wireless driver but there were a lot of changes in both directions). The patch also applies cleanly against 2.6.14-rc1/2 but 2.6.14-rc1/2 panic on initrd uncompress for me, and I can't troubleshoot it because the backtrace scrolls my screen and I can't do a serial console on my laptop. :( In any case I tested reiser4 out some on 13.2, and the only bug I hit was a panic on unmount. but is there some official statment about using 2.6.x reiser4 patches with 2.6.x.x kernels? i mean, does patch called reiser 4 2.6.13 patch is also intended to work with 2.6.13.2 for example or only with 2.6.13 ?
