1Log in as root.
2Edit /etc/sysconfig/kernel and make sure the file contains the following line:
INITRD_MODULES="reiserfs
Note: Other modules may be listed before or after 3w- 9xxx, depending on the installation. You may see entries like reiserfs, ext3 or scsi_mod. If present, leave them (ensuring there is a space between each module name), since the system needs them to boot properly.
