Because reiserfs is no longer actively maintained upstream and because
there are now good alternatives, we have made support for reiserfs
optional instead of standard.
To use reiserfs with daily images you need to either:
- boot in expert mode and select 'partman-reiserfs' as optional component
- boot the installer with the option 'modules?=partman-reiserfs'
I will send a general announcement of this change soon.
