The simple situation is that ext3 is basically all we really support and test, the rest may or may not work. Is there a reason you want to use JFS ? (ext3 in fc3/fc4 is pretty competative with any of the other filesystems on just about every workload performance wise... the benchmarks I've seen from others hardly ever put JFS on top for anything nowadays so JFS strikes me as a bit of an odd choice)
