Comment 1 Dariusz Gadomski 2006-03-26 12:27:19 UTC 
Description of problem:
I've made several attempts to install FC5 using JFS. All of them failed at the
very end of installation (after copying and installing packages). I keep getting
message that there was an unhandled exception and I should insert floppy to
write a bug report. Then it restarts my machine. When installing on ext3
everything is just fine.

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert install DVD.
2. boot with: linux jfs resolution=1024x768
3. Install as usual.
  
Actual results:
Unhandled exception at the very end of installation.

Expected results:
Installation ends successfully, system is rebooted.
Comment 2 Jeremy Katz 2006-03-27 18:21:36 UTC 
JFS isn't supported.  It looks like this is being caused due to JFS not
supporting the xattrs as needed for selinux.
