Regular user won't have the permissions to relabel the media so that makes sense. Probably need to get a change into selinux-policy to label this media correctly for us Yes, this was using boxes. I discovered the root cause it when I tried the same thing in VirtManager using qemu:///session, and it gave me a nice error message complaining about not being able to relabel the file. (Boxes just gave me a failure message without explanation.) (In reply to Paramjit Oberoi from comment #0) > Mounting the ISO file in the VM fails due to SELinux errors. I had to run > the following command to get it to work: > > sudo chcon 'system_u:object_r:virt_content_t:s0' > /usr/share/virtio-win/virtio-win-0.1.102.iso What errors are you getting? Is it still relevant? Do you still see SELinux denials when re-running the scenario? Sorry for the lack of updates. I'm pretty sure I have reinstalled virtio-win since filing this bug, and I have not run into this problem again. I haven't tried it on a freshly installed system though. Given the lack of me-too comments here, I'd say it's safe to close this. We're going to close this bug as WONTFIX because * of limited capacity of selinux-policy developers * the bug is related to EPEL component or 3rd party SW only * the bug appears in unsupported configuration We believe this bug can be fixed via a local policy module.
