Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Hmm... the readahead should be able to read all files that system uses during boot. Note there is few files (like /var/lib/random-seed) that will be removed from the default readahead lists in the next update, because these files are from very early boot time (time before /etc/init.d/readahead_early execution). But the file /etc/audit/auditd.conf definitely belong to readahead list.
Seems to be gone with selinux-policy-targeted-2.6.1-1.fc7 Didn't see anything in the changelog. Close?
Sorry must of missed this change.
