Does anyone know what the proper options are for installing FC5 with
reiserfs?
Not sure, but I think the proper method to disable SELinux is
"selinux=0."
I.e, you need to add the following to the boot options for the installer:
boot: linux reiserfs selinux=0
Hope that helps.

That seems to fix the selinux problem but, unfortunately, another
problem has been exposed. Now at the first reboot after installation, I
get a number of "File not found" type messages. I cannot remember the
exact wording of the messages but the gist of them was that /dev/root
and /proc, amongst others, could not be found. /dev/root is sitting on
my root (/) partition which I have formatted with a reiser fs. At first
glance, it would seem that the root partition could not be mounted so
the system could not find the files that it was looking for.
Someone reported on FedoraForum that "linux selinux=0 reiserfs" worked
for him so I don't know why it's not working for me. Does the order of
the arguments ("selinux=0 reiserfs" vs "reiserfs selinux=0") matter. I
installed FC4 with exactly the same partitions (/boot on ext3, / and
/home on reiserfs) last week on the same computer just last week - it's
a new system that I was testing - but I can't seem to do it with FC5.
The only difference is that I did not have to specify selinux=0 with the
FC4 install. It's starting to get rather annoying.
Dan.
