Description Benjamin Herrenschmidt 2011-08-02 07:04:00 UTC

Description of problem:

Upgraded fc15 to fc16 using packages ok koji, it fails to boot (init dies)
with the following error:

assertion 'close_nointr(fd) == 0' failed at src/util.c:274, function close_nointr_nofail()

Right after it prints something about pivot'ing root

Using selinux=0 on the boot commandline "fixes" it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

systemd-30.1.fc16.ppc64

Comment 2 Benjamin Herrenschmidt 2011-08-03 02:05:36 UTC

Thanks. Karsten rebuilt that for ppc64 and it fixes the problem. Something is still busted in that with selinux, it will then refuse to login either from tty's or from ssh with:

"Unable to get valid context for <username>"

(Tried with both root and a user, even after a relabel phase). Probably a different issue tho.

Thanks.
