[gentoo-dev] SELinux x86 LiveCD

[Chris PeBenito]

A couple of things for SELinux have been happening this week.  Most
exciting is the availability of an experimental SELinux i686 LiveCD,
along with fresh stage 1 and i686 stages 2&3.  The install guide is
back, and now people should be able to install SELinux from scratch. 
These are all very experimental (the guide too), so tread with care, and
report bugs :)  Only issue I know of currently is a few denials from
dhcpcd on the livecd.

Also, a patch to baselayout has been added to make /sbin/init do the
initial policy load.  This eliminates the need for seinit, and fixes up
the problem with /usr being on a separate partition.  Remerge baselayout
and then you can remove init=/sbin/seinit from the kernel command line. 
You can verify your /sbin/init has the the support to do the policy load
by doing 'ldd /sbin/init', and it should mention libselinux.
