Bug Description

The installer fails to even begin the installation when you want to format one of your filesystems with JFS. The installer then stops and can be closed with the button "Quit." Installing jfsutils via apt-get solves the problem and it allows the installation to continue.

I'm using the elementary OS Luna Beta 2 image from 20130506

Linux elementary 3.2.0-41-generic #66-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 25 03:27:11 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

This bug is still unfixed in Freya. The installer provides an option to format partitions using JFS and then fails because jfsutils is not included in the ISO.
