can't mount regular filesystems in GNOME under the livecd
Last modified: 2014-03-16 23:13:51 EDT
Description of problem: When booting the livecd, my box's /boot shows up both in 'Computer' and in the 'Places' menu. However, clicking on it doesn't do anything, and setroubleshoot says: Raw Audit Messages :host=localhost.localdomain type=AVC msg=audit(1207943537.35:16): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=3661 comm="polkit-resolve-" scontext=system_u:system_r:hald_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:hald_t:s0 tclass=process host=localhost.localdomain type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1207943537.35:16): arch=c000003e syscall=0 success=no exit=-13 a0=4 a1=1e432f0 a2=fff a3=0 items=0 ppid=2791 pid=3661 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=68 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=68 sgid=68 fsgid=68 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="polkit-resolve-" exe="/usr/libexec/polkit-resolve-exe-helper" subj=system_u:system_r:hald_t:s0 key=(null) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-3.3.1-33.fc9

It is probably better to add allow hald_t self:process getattr; Rather then use the interface. Fixed in selinux-policy-3.3.1-35.fc9
