I think I read somewhere that JFS needs to be booted rw instead of ro.
Try to change your kernel= line to this:
kernel /boot/kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.15-gentoo-r5 root=/dev/ram0
init=/linuxrc ramdisk=8192 real_root=/dev/hda2 rw
*NOTE* the above should be ONE line.
P.S. Why didn't you try ReiserFS or ext3? I have always used reiserfs
without issue and find it to be very stable and very fast.

I have tried both rw & ro since I had 2 different replies about this
problem - unfortunately both failed with the same error as before.
I use JFS since I find that it's fast & stable too like Reiser. I tended
to use a scattering of filesystems in the past so that I had experience
of them all, but I'm gravitating towards JFS mostly now on my servers.
I've done extensive speed testing using IOZone (http://www.iozone.org/)
and for our systems, our drives, our application I just liked jfs. Not a
lot between them all though apart from speed of file creation/deletion.
thanks
Trevor.
