Note: Slackware 8.0 and Mandrake (current) also support this.  To install reiserfs with slackware you need to use the boot image "ide245.i".  It isn't much different after that.  Just make sure you install the 2.4.5 kernel adn not the 2.2.19 in the a1 packages.  One other note about Slackware 7.1 was the only distro that supported all the hadrware in my laptop out of the box.  Pretty impressive.  I don't know if 8.0 still does or not.
