Did you mv content to /tmp? find /tmp -type d -context "*:boot_t:*" Then remove the content?

I did nothing with /tmp or content, this was one of a series of machines being installed on FC16 or upgraded to it. I don't see the machine name in the report, and I just forwarded the info by clicking the "report via bugzilla" in hopes it would be useful. If there's nothing in the info it sent I can't really tell from this which of MANY machines I did that week was the one, not did I bury you in reports from every one which had problems, I assume you have lots of stuff coming in. If it's not useful feel free to close it, I did about 16 machines that week.
Ok, let's close this one and reopen if this happens again. Thank you.
