Re: [Xen-users] virtual machine lvm issues during install

[Charlie Reddington <charlie.reddington@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the reply I'll fill in some blanks..... I normally disable  
selinux accross the board but I haven't done so yet. I have however  
set it to permissive, assuming it would let things slide but only  
complain about it.
I'll give it a whack with selinux disabled and see if it has any  
changes for me.....

-rwxrwxr-x  root root system_u:object_r:xen_image_t    vm-01-dns-2.img

And it appears that I have the right context from my understanding of  
it.
