umask hates me...

/dev/hda1         /mnt/stuff       reiserfs        rw,user,umask=0000       0     0

that's whats in my fstab

now, whenever i try to mount i get the following error

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda1,
       missing codepage or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

if i remove "umask=0000" from the fstab it mounts fine, but I have no write access as any of the users except root
