I am a bit of a noob with Linux and Centos but would like to be able to access an old external USB disk formatted JFS by OS/2. I have seen there is a kmod-jfs package on elrepo that ought to work with Centos 6 but am unsure how to install kmods without hosing my existing system...
If anyone would like to be so kind to give me a short how-to, I would be very grateful.
Thank you.

Thank you, installed it and it worked fine. Now I am looking for the same for CentOS 7... It did not look like you have that in your repository?

You may want to file an RFE (request for enhancement) at http://elrepo.org/bugs .
Another option is to use the CentOSPlus kernel (kernel-plus). This kernel has the jfs kernel module enabled. It is available from CentOS (for example, http://mirrors.coreix.net/centos/7/centosplus/ ).

A couple of days ago I submitted a request to ElRepo and kmod-jfs is now available for CentOS 7 as well.

Did not have a need to mount a JFS disk on my CentOS 7 system until today and it does not want to be mounted, instead complaining "unknown filesystem type 'jfs'". I do have kmod-jfs installed.
The commandline I use is:
mount -t "jfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid" "/dev/sdb1" /mnt/share
I am doing this as root and /mnt/share has been created for the root user.
What am I doing wrong? Does anyone have JFS volumes mounted under CentOS 7?

The kmod-jfs package needs to be rebuilt against the EL7.4 kernel.
We will update the bug report ( http://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=728 ) when the updated version is ready.

Try the following command on a computer you had kmod-jfs installed:
$ ls -l `find /lib/modules -name jfs.ko`
It will show where the module was installed (in the extra/ directory) and may show symbolic links to other kernel versions (if any) that are compatible.
In the case of the kmod-jfs package, there was a kABI breakage when going from el7.3 to el7.4. As a result, what was built against el7.3 was broken in el7.4. It has now been built against the el7.4 kernel. This one is not backward compatible with earlier (< 7.4) kernels.
