Sorry if you see this twice, I may have goofed:
Hey,
So I was playing around with trying to get a CentOS 6.5 system
FIPS-140 complaint. However, my system panics because it cannot find
the hmac file associated with my kernel. It's basically as what is
going on is described in this bug report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=805538
The /sbin/fips.sh script in the initramfs there is a bit of code:
if ! [ -e "/boot/.vmlinuz-${KERNEL}.hmac" ]; then
warn "/boot/.vmlinuz-${KERNEL}.hmac does not exist"
return 1
fi
But that file does exist on the system. I guess the initramfs may not
see the /boot directory on the system? Or is it trying to look for
/boot inside the initramfs? If so that would explain my problem. I
haven't verified any of this yet. But seems like /boot ought to be
mounted for the system... anyone know of a fix for this?
