This was very unobvious from the error output. 2) Make sure you enable the shm pseudo file system so that tmpfs exists. I'll try to find some time to write up the details of getting initrd running on a 2.6.0 kernel under a Debian dist. First I've got a *&^%$ load of avc's. And I still have to prove my attribute handler kernel patch works. -- ------------------------------------------------------ IN MY NAME: Dale Amon, CEO/MD No Mushroom clouds over Islandone Society London and New York. www.islandone.org ------------------------------------------------------ -- This message was distributed to subscribers of the selinux mailing list.
