[GRASSLIST:2132] Re: r.reclass: how to reclass only part of the categories

[Andrea Aime]

Well, if space is not an issue you can do the following:
r.mapcalc
newDEM = if(dem<9000,dem,null())

this will result in the original file for categories under
9000 and will nullify everything else... but beware it will
produce another raster file, with full disk occupation
associated, not a reclass file.
Hope this helps
Best regards
