From /etc/sysconfig/kernel
INITRD_MODULES="processor thermal pata_amd sata_nv ahci pata_jmicron fan 
jbd ext3 edd jfs capability"

When I boot from 10.3 x86_64 DVD or from the ext3 drive, I can mount the 
jfs partition, also chroot works. In rescue mkinitrd also says the jfs 
module is included. I may try with jfs in front of ext3 in case it's due 
to a race condition.
