SUSE will blacklist a number of legacy and/or less frequently used file systems by default on SLES for security reasons.
Why blacklist?
Why just not "not build" them in suse distros?
If a user wants to build them they'll get past blacklisting too, but what's the point of building blacklisted drivers?
Well, it impedes mounting by accident such a filesystem, for examply by a plain user inserting an usb stick. If that vulnerable filesystem is really vulnerable and can be used to attack the system, well, thats a serious vulenrability. With blacklisting such a filesystem can only be mounted if root wants, for which he needs reading a bit. Another step is creating an article in our wiki that google finds when searching for the error message. Or that the error message gives a link or some thing to RTFM. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
