There're only two small bug fixes to reiserfs code between 
grub-0.5.96.1 and grub-0.91.

Does "geometry (hd0)"  detect the reiserfs partition correctly?  If 
yes, type "cat (hd0,0)/" and then press <tab> and check whether it 
can display the directories.  Try also to cat small files or follow 
symlinks.  Is there a symlink in /boot/grub/stage1?
