This is what I get:
test@debian:~$ cat /etc/debian_version
wheezy/sid
test@debian:/$ stat /
File: `/'
Size: 592 Blocks: 1 IO Block: 4096 directory
Device: 802h/2050d Inode: 2 Links: 23
Access: (0755/drwxr-xr-x) Uid: ( 0/ root) Gid: ( 0/ root)
Access: 2011-05-26 17:10:49.000000000 +0200
Modify: 2011-05-26 17:10:49.000000000 +0200
Change: 2011-05-26 17:10:49.000000000 +0200
test@debian:/$ cat /etc/fstab | grep reiser
UUID=c623724b-fab2-4930-a2d5-f673cfa84b63 / reiserfs notail 0 1
And no directory under "/" can be created by plain users:
test@debian:~$ cd /
test@debian:/$ mkdir data
mkdir: cannot create directory `data': Permission denied
Review your last commands (history), just in case... :-?
