With the new lsm realtime kernel module jackstart will complain about
the capabilities but will work fine anyway. You can either ignore the
warning or use "jackd" instead of "jackstart".

Did you install rtload and rtirq through planetccrma-core? Or manually?
It would seem that rtload is not enabled. See what it looks like:

/sbin/chkconfig --list rtload
(is it "on"?)
If it is off in all levels you should configure it on so that it loads
automatically on boot (it should have been set to "on" automatically
when it was installed):
/sbin/chkconfig rtload on

Or you can start it manually to test it:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/rtload start
