Public bug reported:
ReiserFS support has been removed from the Ubuntu 13.10 installer. It is
not even possible to mount existing partitions in the installer. I do
*not* yet want to use BTRFS for my data partition, since it is much more
unstable than ReiserFS. And I do *not* want to use the old ext3/4, since
its performance is worse then ReiserFS (directories with many small
files).
At least, the installer should still allow to mount existing ReiserFS-
based data partitions. Currently, it is necessary to install with BTRFS
or ext3/4 and then manually add the existing ReiserFS partitions. If
Ubuntu does not want people to use ReiserFS for whatever reason, print a
warning and let users decide to use it. Just silently removing a feature
is annoying.
