I suspect that is likely to piss off a few people, just as it did me - according to bug #115227, JFS is no longer supported as root fileystem by SuSE Linux.
And of course, true to the "open" nature of openSUSE, no explanation, nothing. You guys at SuSE - you're not making this particularly easy, are you?
You could have asked in the bug why that is the case before bitching here.
By the way, did I completely miss the official announcement about SuSE dropping JFS root support? I know JFS was dropped for _installation_ as of 9.3 - pissed me off too, but to also completely drop support for JFS as root filesystem ...
And if you had actually read the bug you reference, you would have seen that you can indeed boot from JFS, there was even a detailed description how to do it. Carl-Daniel
