Exactly. After fiddling around a bit I've found that the filesystem |
| 8 |
needs to be created with a kernel that has xattr support. And I suspect |
| 9 |
that the files on it need to be created using a xattr enabled kernel |
| 10 |
too. Reasoning being that I first created a filesystem under selinux, |
| 11 |
then booted into another system and copied some files over. Back into |
| 12 |
selinux I found that I could not mount that partition. I wiped the |
| 13 |
partition again, created a new filesystem, rebooting back into the other |
| 14 |
system using an xattr enabled kernel this time and copied the files over |
| 15 |
again. Back into selinux I can now mount that partition. End of problem |
| 16 |
for now. Reconfiguring and rebuilding the policy is probably the less |
| 17 |
cumbersome way to get around this. |
