JFS is being migrated from the IBM developerworks site to
sourceforge.net. The mailing lists are migrated, and the migration of
the rest of the site should be complete by Friday. After that, the old
site should redirect you to the new one.

This only affects the website that was hosting many of the open source

I found out that when migrating the mailing lists from developerworks to
sourceforge, the "nomail" option was not transferred to sourceforge, so
that subscribers who did not want to get email are now getting it. I

You changed more than just the kernel, right? You re-installed the
whole system. I think the default locale may be different between your
old and new systems. What does the locale command return on both the

I have finally added support for a page size greater than 4K for jfs and
the code is now in 2.6.12-rc2-mm1. This will allow jfs to work on
architectures with larger page sizes: alpha, sparc, all configs of ia64,
etc.
I completely replaced the address-space operations for jfs's metadata,

Release 1.1.8 of jfsutils was made available today.
This release include the following changes to the utilities:
- fsck should not bail out if reserved (but unused) inode 1 is bad
- code cleanup - remove unused variables, eliminate compiler warnings

Are you running a recent version of jfsutils? Versions prior to 1.1.6
don't do much to verify the directory table. There was a big-endian

It's not too helpful. fsck basically calls fsck.jfs and waits for it to
complete. An strace on 'fsck.jfs /dev/vg00/lvol0' may be more helpful.
Running that under gdb would probably be better still.
