Are there plans to include other filesystems during anaconda? How about including reiserfs? I've had to manually create this filesystem... it's plug-and-chug, but tedious.
anaconda actually has most of the code, it's just not on by default right now. There are a number of variables that just make it hard to get it all tested and verify that things don't break to enable it unconditionally. Also, most filesystems don't support the needed security xattrs required for SELinux -- I know that reiserfs does not at present, for example.
I'd love to enable this, it's just a matter of testing and avoiding paths that we know are going to cause problems :/
