Subject: /dev entries which also need to be /.?u?dev'd
Date: Tue, 31 Aug 2004 11:16:02 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040831101602.GB2098@lkcl.net> (raw)
the following entries presently marked as /dev need, imo, to also
be modified to be ":%s/\/dev/\/.?u?dev/g" [in vi].
the reason is as i explained that if someone using udev [with or
without tmpfs] does a
setfiles /etc/selinux/src/file_contexts/file_contexsts /.dev
then they are buggered, without the above.
for example, /.dev/initctl will suddenly end up with a default_t
type such that bootup will fail!
also /dev/.udev.tdb was set to default_t as well which could
have caused problems.
it's all gone pear-shaped, gloop, gloop.

Truth, honesty and respect are rare commodities that all spring from
the same well: Love. If you love yourself and everyone and everything
around you, funnily and coincidentally enough, life gets a lot better.
