Description Isaac 2008-07-05 09:14:44 UTC 
The current livedvd-i686-installer-2008.0_beta2.iso (and possibly other 2008.0 beta2 live cds/dvds) does not include jfs filesystem support while jfsutils remains included as on previous releases.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. mkfs.jfs /dev/myhdd = OK
2. mount /dev/myhdd /mnt/gentoo = "mount: unknown filesystem type 'jfs'"

Actual Results:  
JFS filesystem cannot be mounted.

Expected Results:  
JFS filesystem successfully mounted.
Comment 1 Isaac 2008-07-05 09:54:43 UTC 
It should be noted that zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -i JFS when booted into
the LiveDVD results in CONFIG_JFS_FS=m and yet the module is definitely not on
the disc.
Comment 2 Isaac 2008-07-05 10:30:54 UTC 
Confirming that install-x86-minimal-2008.0_beta2.iso does NOT have this issue. livedvd-i686-installer-2008.0_beta2.iso *does* obviously still have this issue.
Comment 3 Andrew Gaffney (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-07-06 17:44:27 UTC 
This should be fixed in 2008.0, which is now released.
