Sigh,
This is what I get for being excited and update my machine before  
actually looking at the RPMs....

It appears that the jfs kernel module isn't built yet for the  
CentOSplus kernel. So while fsck.jfs does work, I can't get Centos to  
actually mount my jfs partition. Of course I may have screwed  
something up, too.

I have  this line in /etc/fstab
/dev/md2                /export                 jfs      
defaults        1 1

and when I do a mount /export
I get
mount: unknown filesystem type 'jfs'

Any ideas?
