Patches should be shubmitted through Bugzilla. I don't know what you mean by "offical specs", but I guess you are referring to the source.
I am assuming there are some official specs - otherwise how can someone say "we don't support JFS as root filesystem" and close the bugreport with that reasoning? So somewhere there must be a list of what is supported and what isn't?
By the way, why did you start of this discussion again? Some weeks ago we already went through all this...
No, this is different Christoph. My initial issue back then was lack of Installer support for creating JFS file systems - at the time I was led to believe that the installed system should be able to boot off JFS, but now when I report that it can't, I'm told it's also not supported. When I opened bug #115227, it was primarily because I'd recognised that a possible fix was a mere 4 extra characters in INITRD_MODULES. Back to patches - let's assume I go fix this problem such that the Installer properly recognises that the root filesystem is JFS and can correct INITRD_MODULES to include "jfs". Seeing as the bug report was effectively rejected with "not supported", why would my patch be accepted?? /Per Jessen, Zürich
