Bug#218416: Latest sarge installer cannot format reiserfs properly...
Package: installation
Version: sarge-netinst-Oct-8-2003
The latest sarge installer (downloaded sarge netinst image on Oct 29,
2003, timestamp was Oct 8, 2003) hangs when trying to format any
partitions as reiserfs. This is because mkfs.reiserfs is waiting for
input. I was able to make it continue by echoing a 'y' to its STDIN
file.
The mkreiserfs command should be changed to include -f -f, which would
force the write.
