JFS support is very limited. It might still be possible to mount such a filesystem (didn't test), but for installation we really need a filesystem that we fully support.
This is clearly a regression wrt Leap15.0 - I don't know if that matters. Might it be reasonable to just skip the size check on filesystems that are pre-formatted? (in reply to David Diaz, comment#4)

I've doing this for maybe 12-13 years, sometimes I'm a little too fast and I make assumptions :-) I'll be happy to attach y2logs, if needed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

sda1 has a jfs filesystem. I thought installing on pre-formatted file systems was still supported.
Well, maybe by mistake or "best effort". JFS is not supported at all.
I'm in no way suggesting we should support JFS, only that we should not actively prevent users from installing on JFS (or any other fs of their choice), that's all. It works in 15.0. I seem to recall you and I having a similar discussion with 15.0? Yes, see bug#1078552. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Thanks for the logs. From the logs:

See discussion at https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2019-01/msg00549.html.
You can try to remove /etc/modprobe.conf/60-blacklist_fs-jfs.conf or load the module manually. But in any case the setup is not supported anymore.
Thanks Arvin, I forgot about that discussion. I'll try that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Just in case anyone reads this - manually loading module 'jfs' worked a treat. I feel pretty stupid that I forgot about that discussion. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
