FAT: bogus logical sector size 0
reiserfs: found format "3.6" with standard journal

what is this ?

related to my fat32 part right? is it because i used reiserfs ? cuz i never had this when i had my fs as ext2 or ext3fs.

any comments ?

It these are boottime dmesg's, just disregard them, the kernel is determining with what module to load the root fs.

That's an known issue in the 2.4.x kernel series, and Hans Reiser and his crew were working on it; I don't know if it has been fixed in newer kernel versions.

As far as reiser vs. ext2 goes- reiser is a journalling filesystem (as is ext3), which means that it's more resistant to filesystem corruption. Under certain circumstances, reiser is also faster than ext2/3.
