Is there a good reliable way to mount ReiserFS partitions in Windows? All I found is YAReG but it doesn't really mount a drive so I can't use my favorite tool for file operations and, more importantly, it won't understand unicode file names.

There's also rfstool, but I have not specifically tried this.
Note the following restriction!:
Access is read-only. I do not intend to change that, at least for the time being.
Journal data is ignored. These tools show the file structure as it is ON DISK, right now.

maybe not the most elegant way, but it works for me:
Cooperative Linux is the first working free and open source method for optimally running Linux on Microsoft Windows natively. More generally, Cooperative Linux (short-named coLinux) is a port of the Linux kernel that allows it to run cooperatively alongside another operating system on a single machine. For instance, it allows one to freely run Linux on Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7.

After another question on SU and a little googling:
- An updated version of rfsd: http://www.acc.umu.se/~bosse/
- RFSGUI: Another GUI for rfstool
- A total commander plugin
There is rfsd which, as I know, is based on rfstool. Simple enough to use and it mounts as a drive so you can use FAR.

In fact, probably it does not work anymore on newer versions of Windows. – Renan Feb 21 '12 at 02:13
