JFS in CentOS

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hello all,

I'm relatively new to CentOS, but I've been using linux as my main operating system on both the desktop and server ends for the past 4 years.

I currently have a PIII server with two 160GB IDE hard drives in it, in a virtual RAID 1 array. At the time of installation, the only FS choices for the largest partition, 120GB, were ext2 and ext3. I chose ext3, but now am wishing to reformat the partition as JFS to skip long file system check times.

I've done Google searches regarding the topic, which lead me to added centos.plus to my repo list, and installed the only kernel I see as being available from CentOSPlus, and yet I still have no JFS modules loaded or anywhere in /lib/modules/. I installed JFSUtils from the CentOSPlus repo, but have no way to use the partition that has been created (by myself, using mkfs.jfs). Short of compiling a kernel with JFS support from the source package provided with CentOS, I don't know what to do.

Has anyone else used JFS on CentOS 5.2 successfully? How did you do it?

Thanks,
Hal
