Description of problem:
System upgraded to rawhide 2006-01-26

I was previosuly using selinux=0 due to baddly labelled security contexts

Today I realised that selinux=0 remained in my grub.conf, so removed it and rebooted, system not bootable due to ld.so.cache and libuuid.so.1.2 being blocked.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rawhide 2006-01-26

How reproducible:
Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. happens every boot with selinux enabled, not tried fresh install ....
2.
3.

Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2006-01-28 21:20:28 UTC
You need to relabel your system.

touch /.autorelabel
reboot
You might have to boot in permissive mode.  Any time you run with selinux=0
files will get mislabeled.  You are always better to boot with enforcing=0 so
that file contexts are maintained.

Comment 2 Andy Burns 2006-01-28 21:55:57 UTC
the relabel fixed it, is the mere presence of the .autorelabel the trigger, or
it's timestamp relative to something else?

Thanks for the enforcing=0 tip too, I still have quite a blindspot about
selinux, so it seems that jumping to selinx=0 can be a short term cure, but
longer term headache, though many people on the devel and test lists recommend
selinux=0 at the first hint of an selinux issue :-(



Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2006-01-28 22:09:11 UTC
That is unfortunate.  Next time you see it maybe you can make this comment.
