12 I followed the instructions in the "Quick Start Guide", using the policy
13 with no modifications.
14
15 I am completely new to SELinux, so I probably missed something...
16
17 but I was getting lots of errors AFTER the initial emerge of
18 selinux-enabled packages -- until I issues a 'make load' to load the
19 policy. Probably I re-booted once too often in there...
20
21 Anyway, I have made the initrd, and when I re-boot, it loads the
22 policies, and then I get an avc denied error for read on /dev/ram0 (the
23 ramdisk), pivot_root fails, and init dies.
24
25 I can bring the system up without the init ramdisk (and thus without the
26 policy loaded, I suppose)
27
28 kernel 2.6.0-test9-patchset1 (the first of the -test9 vanilla sources).
29
30 I think it works, technology-wise, but I am missing something in the
31 config...
