Actual results: raceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/livecd-creator", line 136, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/usr/bin/livecd-creator", line 112, in main creator = imgcreate.LiveImageCreator(ks, name, fs_label) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/imgcreate/live.py", line 47, in __init__ LoopImageCreator.__init__(self, *args) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/imgcreate/creator.py", line 788, in __init__ ImageCreator.__init__(self, ks, name) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/imgcreate/creator.py", line 76, in __init__ self.__sanity_check() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/imgcreate/creator.py", line 404, in __sanity_check raise CreatorError("SELinux requested but not enabled on host") imgcreate.errors.CreatorError: SELinux requested but not enabled on host Expected results: livecd created Additional info: why is selinux on the host important? I am going to boot from the cd not from my hd. livecd-creator can get to any rpm it needs and it complains about my system?
To set SELinux attributes and have things labeled correctly, you must have SELinux enabled on your host. The kernel does not allow setting of the SELinux xattrs on files otherwise
