SELinux policy requires disk images to be in either /xen (for legacy compat), or /var/lib/xen/images (current preferred). If you really really want to keep disk images elsewhere, then you need to add the extra directory to the policy & make sure its labelled, eg To add to policy: semanage fcontext --add -t xen_image_t '/home/admin/xen(/.*)?' And then to label the dir: restorecon /home/admin/xen Regards, Dan. -- |=- Red Hat, Engineering, Emerging Technologies, Boston. +1 978 392 2496 -=| |=- Perl modules: http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ -=| |=- Projects: http://freshmeat.net/~danielpb/ -=| |=- GnuPG: 7D3B9505 F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 -=| -- Fedora-xen mailing list Fedora-xen@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-xen
