Most of the documentation is a snapshot of the old Namesys site (archive.org, 2007-09-29).

There was also a Reiser4 Wiki (archive.org, 2007-07-06) once on pub.namesys.com.

Reiser4 development appears to have stalled and ReiserFS is deprecated and scheduled to be removed from mainline Linux in 2025.

NOTE: this is currently WIP and NOT TESTED AT ALL

GRUB

Before building GRUB with Reiser4 support, we have to build and install (libaal and) reiser4progs. Once we have done that, we can build GRUB. You may have to adjust the pathnames used here:

 $ wget http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/grub/grub-0.97.tar.gz
 $ wget http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/grub/grub-0.97.tar.gz.sig
 $ gpg --recv-keys FE06BDEF
 $ gpg --verify grub-0.97.tar.gz.sig grub-0.97.tar.gz
 $ tar -xzf grub-0.97.tar.gz
 $ cd grub-0.97
 $ patch -p1 < ../grub-0.97-libaal-1.0.5-reiser4progs-1.0.5.patch
 $ CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/libaal/include -I/opt/reiser4progs/include" \
   LDFLAGS="-L/opt/libaal/lib -L/opt/reiser4progs/lib" \
   ./configure --prefix=/opt/grub-r4
 $ make
 $ sudo make install

GRUB v2

TBD, GRUB 2 support is still not ready.
