8 need to iron out a few things and haven't had the time but I'm preparing
9 another server this week-end so I can try a new MCS install and report back
10 problems and bugs. Regarding bugs, the documentation on page

15 Recommend the installation of selinux modules before configuring the policy.
16 I don't recommend that because all the policies get installed into the
17 strict directory (/etc/selinux/strict) on a default installation and the
18 /etc/selinux/mcs directory is empty. That's an easy fix but I can do a bug
19 report if needed.
