I had the same problem. Thats what prompted me to upgrade JFS.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora Core release 1 (Yarrow)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# uname -a
Linux morticia.ra.is 2.4.22-1.2199.nptlsmp #1 SMP Wed Aug 4 11:48:29 EDT 2004 i686
i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# fsck.jfs -V
fsck.jfs version 1.1.7, 22-Jul-2004
processing started: 10/26/2004 19.21.34
Upgrading was remarkably easy. Here's how I did it.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# umount /u0
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# rmmod jfs
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# cd /usr/src/linux-2.4
[EMAIL PROTECTED] linux-2.4]# tar xzvf ~/jfs/jfs-2.4-1.1.7.tar.gz
This replaces the 1.1.3 JFS code shipped with Red Hat's kernel.
I'm running the i686 smp kernel so:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] linux-2.4]# make mrproper
[EMAIL PROTECTED] linux-2.4]# cp configs/kernel-2.4.22-i686-smp.config .config
[EMAIL PROTECTED] linux-2.4]# vi Makefile
The Makefile edit is to get rid of the "-custom" version.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] linux-2.4]# make oldconfig
[EMAIL PROTECTED] linux-2.4]# make dep
[EMAIL PROTECTED] linux-2.4]# make modules
Once make got past JFS I just aborted the make process and copied the JFS
module (jfs.o) into /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2199.nptlsmp/unsupported/fs/jfs/
Updating the utils is a snap. After that, most of my JFS problems
where history. I really dont want to run the stock kernel because then
I loose all the improvements like the nptl threading the binaries on
the system use and so forth.
