ReiserFS: "Filesystem type unknown"

[Jim Caley]

I had grub working with an ext2 partition, but now that I've converted 
this partition to reiserfs I can't seem to get grub to recognize it.
I am able to run Linux off the reiserfs partition using a boot floppy.

I'm working through the "Installing GRUB natively" section of the info 
doc.  "find" isn't finding the reiserfs partition (/dev/hda8), which 
*does* have a /boot/grub directory.  FWIW, I put a listing of this dir 
at the bottom of this message.  Here's what I'm getting in GRUB's 
command-line interface (it would seem find should be able to locate 
/boot/grub/stage1 on (hd0,7), but it doesn't):

--
grub> find /boot/grub/stage1
 (fd0)
 (hd1,5)

grub> root (hd0,7)
 Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x83

grub>
--

As you can see, "find" *is* finding /boot/grub/stage1 on the floppy, as 
well as on my second hard drive, where I have a copy of my original ext2 
partition.

I'm running RedHat 7.1 Update 1, but with the 2.4.10 kernel.  Grub is 
ver. 0.90 (checked out of CVS, then built and installed).  ReiserFS is 
ver. 3.6.25.

TIA,
Jim
