Hi Russell,
I got hit by this one. Some details:
Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop, Centrino 1.6Ghz, running 2.6.11-1.27_FC3. An
"everything" installation of FC3, kept updated from fedora-updates and
livna. Using the 2100 wireless NIC at the time.
I did an update this afternoon, which included the selinux policy update
and the latest kernel (kernel-2.6.11-1.35_FC3). During the yum update,
things started breaking as the update applied the new policies (eg. I
couldn't use ssh from the laptop to other hosts).
When I tried to shutdown, I got many messages like this:
Jun 28 18:56:00 ben8600 kernel: audit(1119948960.209:0): avc: denied
{ execmod } for pid=13420 comm=mingetty path=/lib/tls/libc-2.3.5.so
dev=hda11 ino=20455 scontext=user_u:system_r:unconfined_t
tcontext=system_u:object_r:lib_t tclass=file
My only option was to power off the laptop. I then had to boot with
enforcing=0 (and a considerable amount of fscking) to get back up.
If there is any other information I can give you to help reproduce this,
let me know.
Cheers, Ben
