Hi,

After updating the kernel it seems that the /vmlinuz(.old) and
/initrd.img(.old) symlinks are deleted and then recreated.

This means that the SELinux label of these symlinks should be reset.

The easiest way of doing that is (as there are no perl bindings) to call
restorecon executable if the executable is installed on the machine as
it handel the case were selinux is disabled on the machine gracefully

ie. restorecon /vmlinuz

Kind regards,

Laurent Bigonville
