I'm trying to change an existing ext4 partition to reiserFS in Centos 6.3 64bit.

I've updated the kernel to Centos Plus:

First, I've updated /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo:

  • In the [centosplus] section:

    enabled=1
    includepkgs=kernel*
    

Then I ran yum ypdate and my Kernel was updated to Centos Plus:

[root@vappsil disk]# uname -r
2.6.32-279.11.1.el6.centos.plus.x86_64

Then, I've added this to /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo

  • into the [centosplus] section:

    includepkgs=kernel* jfsutils reiserfs-utils
    
  • into the [base] and [updates] section:

    includepkgs=kernel* jfsutils reiserfs-utils
    

But when trying to execute:

yum install reiserfs-utils

I get:

No package reiserfs-utils available.

How can I install the reiserFS-utils package to create a reiserFS partition?
