Install ReiserFS by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sbindir=/sbin && make && make install && ln -sf reiserfsck /sbin/fsck.reiserfs && ln -sf mkreiserfs /sbin/mkfs.reiserfs |
--prefix=/usr: This ensures that the manual pages are installed in the correct location while still installing the programs in /sbin as they should be.
--sbindir=/sbin: This ensures that the ReiserFS utilities are installed in /sbin as they should be.
