Yes, I am really sure from that. Maybe the problem is the ID type which
according to fdisk is 83 for the partition formatted under Linux and 35 for
the partition formatted under OS/2.
The output of fdisk will gives me a following: (Id of the JFS-partition
formatted by OS/2 is 35 not 83)
Disk /dev/hdb: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1583 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdb1 * 1457 1583 1020127+ 82 Linux swap
/dev/hdb2 2 1456 11687287+ 5 Extended
/dev/hdb5 * 2 1201 9638968+ 35 Unknown
/dev/hdb6 * 1202 1456 2048256 83 Linux
Partition table entries are not in disk order
In addition the blocksize should be 4096 (mkfs.jfs default) in both
partitions, because I especially put it to that while formatting /dev/hdb6
under OS/2.

Hmm, if "lsparts" reports both as JFS, then the installer should
both see them as JFS also... are you sure you didn't re-format
both under Linux in the meantime?
