Comment 1 for bug 44566

I am also a user of ReiserFS that is very disappointed at the state of the installer regarding ReiserFS. In Dapper, it was possible to workaround it by creating the partitions by hand. In Edgy that is not even possible (it would complaint about not having a root filesystem even when there's a defined root filesystem, only that it is an already created and formated ReiserFS).
I had to install with the alternate CD, that worked.
I've found this bugs to be related (maybe all the same bug: support ReiserFS please): 42994, 44566, 49826.
Thank you.
