This is the official kernel parameters documentation. https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.html > And this procedure is just used to bypass gdm. Right ? No, this is turning selinux enforcement off; it runs, but warns instead of errors out. If you look in journalctl -b, you should see the selinux errors that were causing your problem as warnings during boot. If you use journalctl -r, you can see any other warnings that selinux is giving now as well, starting from the present, and receding into the past. > Would this allow someone to access my computer without my password ? > I did not > have to enter a password the second time I did this. This change shouldn't affect that. Which password are you talking about? After the system has booted and you are at the desktop manager / greeter (e.g. gdm)? Maybe it is a temporary rawhide change effect. _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to test-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
