I tried installing XEN while running SElinux in enforcing mode, probably
not a good idea but....
When I tried creating the first virtual machine (using virt-manager), I
got an SELinux error flagged in setroubleshooter. I compounded my errors
by applying the fix suggested in setroubshooter (basically relabelling
the /lib directory if my memory serves). This generated about 70 more se
errors before I could get to the ^C keys.
Now on reboot I get the following error which pops me in to the fsck
shell.

/sbin/dmsetup error while loading shared libraries libdevmapper.so.1.0.2

If I apply the grub option selinux=0 the system boots just fine, but of
course selinux is disabled.

I tried disabling selinux from the GUI, reboot, re-enable reboot. I was
hoping the re-label on re-enable would fix the issue, but the system
does not boot far enough to get to the relabeling phase.
Can anyone tell me how to fix the selinux setup so that it can be
re-enabled?

Im running a fully updated FC6 on Core 2 Duo 6600/Asus P5W motherboard,
which works great except for having nothing in /proc/acpi/thermal_zone.


Lets take a step back.
You have made sure your dom0 machine is labeled correctly?

Please make sure you have the latest selinux-policy installed on your FC6 box.


Where are you trying to create the xen image file? This file needs to be labeled xen_image_t. I think the new default location for this is /var/lib/xen/images? It used to be in /xen.

If you create the xen image file in /var/lib/xen it should get the default label xen_image_t. If you want this in a different path, you will need to execute the following command

chcon -t xen_image_t PATHTOXENIMAGE

The xen tools will eventually do this for you. Hopefully?

If you have other AVC messages please attach.
