Not in my most recent experience (SUSE 9.0).  

It worked for a few days after 9.0 install.  Then I deleted and reorganized 
some partitions.  SUSE root is hda6, deleted hda7 (rest of disk) and created 
hda7,8,9.  This has been a safe operation with all other fs.  After normal 
shutdown, reiser could not find the superblock on hda6.  No attempts at 
recovery would make the journal usable.  Fortunately, my /home partition was 
readable, so I made a backup copy and reinstalled using ext3.

Obviously, lots of people have good results with reiserfs, but when it goes 
south, it goes all the way.
