You might be able to install to JFS, but I am fairly sure you can't boot
from JFS, so using JFS for / (I still don't see the point of a fancy
filesystem for an almost static small filesystem) requires using a
seperate /boot with ext2 or ext3 anyhow.  Why not just have ext3 on /
and use JFS if you feel like it for the other volumes?
