>Summary
>    SELinux is preventing /sbin/ifconfig (ifconfig_t) "read" to
>    /var/lib/xen/images/XP4-disk (removable_device_t).
>
>Detailed Description
>    SELinux denied access requested by /sbin/ifconfig. It is not expected that
>    this access is required by /sbin/ifconfig and this access may signal an
>    intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or
>    configuration of the application is causing it to require additional access.
>
>Allowing Access
>    Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials.  You could try to
>    restore the default system file context for /var/lib/xen/images/XP4-disk,
>    restorecon -v /var/lib/xen/images/XP4-disk If this does not work, there is
>    currently no automatic way to allow this access. Instead,  you can generate
>    a local policy module to allow this access - see
>    http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385 Or you can disable
>    SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not
>    recommended. Please file a http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi
>    against this package.
