Hi, Thanks all. I put the dmesg results on

https://mywebspace.wisc.edu/hongyusun/web/dmesg.txt

I searched AVC on it. And it seems it got two lines including this word.

audit(1123688515.747:2): avc:  denied  { write } for  pid=1620
comm="fsck" name=rhgb-console dev=ramfs ino=5792
scontext=system_u:system_r:fsadm_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:ramfs_t
tclass=fifo_file
EXT3 FS on sda3, internal journal
SELinux: initialized (dev tmpfs, type tmpfs), uses transition SIDs
audit(1123688516.652:3): avc:  denied  { unlink } for  pid=1673
comm="swapon" name=blkid.tab.old dev=sda3 ino=2682231
scontext=system_u:system_r:fsadm_t tcontext=root:object_r:etc_t
tclass=file
Adding 5116660k swap on /dev/sda5.  Priority:-1 extents:1

So is it a SELinux issue?

Many thanks,
