Seeing this, too, identical report. Also, to resolve the situation I set selinux=permissive in /etc/sysconfig/selinux, and now I get: idicon@hagrid:[~]$ id -Z Sorry, --context (-Z) can be used only on a selinux-enabled kernel. Which doesn't seem to be an expected behavior. Do you have a selinux=0 in the grub.conf? This indicates you are booting a kernel with SELinux support turned off. Of you do not have a policy file installed. Dan I noticed that /etc/security/selinux/policy.16 file was apparently named /etc/security/selinux/policy. (trailing dot, no 16). After moving it to .16, it worked. Thanks for the info about the policy file, the machine now nearly loads.
When I boot normally, I now get an unending stream of the following
error message:
audit(1081178872.934:0): avc: denied { write } for pid=1063

Me thinks this is a dupe of bug 119981 Boot with enforcing=0, relabel, then reboot normally. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 119981 *** Changed to 'CLOSED' state since 'RESOLVED' has been deprecated. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040225 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: A very recent yum upgrade of SELinux for Fedora Core2 Test2, possibly policycoreutils, is causing a Kernel Panic during bootup. I ran 'yum upgrade' on the morning of April 5, 2004. It updated the kernel, SELinux packages and more. After I attempted to boot, it says: Enforcing mode requested but no policy loaded. Halted now. Kernel Panic: Attempted to kill init! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): policycoreutils How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run 'yum upgrade' on Fedora Core 2 Test 2 2. Reboot the machine Actual Results: During the boot process I get: Enforcing mode requested but no policy loaded. Halted now. Kernel Panic: Attempted to kill init! The computer will go no farther and will not completely boot. Expected Results: Ability to boot the computer. Additional info: I wish I wrote down all the upgrades that occurred, but it was the updates available on the morning of April 5, 2004. I am running a Dell Dimension 2100. It has 196mb of ram, an Intel Celeron 800mhz. It uses the Intel 810 video card.
