Created attachment 386140 [details] Patch to force permissive mode if /.autorelabel is present One problem we have in RHEL5 is autorelabel on a totally unlabeled machine does not work. The reason for this is init or other programs blow up because their shared libraries are not labeled (file_t). So tools like restorecon are not allowed to run. The machine really should be in permissive mode until the relabelling is complete. I would like to modify dracut selinux script to force permissive mode if the /.autorelabel flag is set.
