Subject: load_policy has to be moved to /sbin from /usr/sbin to handle initrd executing load_policy
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2009 13:56:20 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4AC39BC4.8020804@redhat.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 158 bytes --]

Ubunto and Fedora have moved to a model where the initrd executes load_policy -i.

This means load_policy has to be in /sbin since /usr might not be mounted.
