I went to the http://www.nsa.gov/selinux/ website to find out. It seems to be enhanced security for linux. I don't know anything about it or what to fix.
I don't know what breaks when you clone a server using si_getimage, but it prevent users from logging into system that have it turned on and have been cloned.
You may want to at least post something somewhere for people to know that it is not supported in systemimager at this time.
Also, note that FC5 has it turned on by default. I had to use the GUI tool to turn it off at "First Boot Time", the system then told me that for these changes to take affect that the system needed to reboot (Sounds like something you need to do in a Windows system not linux). However, when I turned it off and then rebooted, I was able to create a golden-client that would allowed me to log in.
I will have these servers in house until 8/28, so if you need me to try something, it will have to be before date.
Thanks,
-John.

Hi John:
I'm forwarding the thread back to sisuite-devel mailing-list so that when Andrea comes back he can take a look at the issue (please keep the thread there when responding).
Regarding SELinux, I'm not sure what our stance is on it - do you have a good handle regarding how we can fix the issue?
Cheers,
Bernard

Success!!!! 3.7.4
I just created a good golden-client and created a clone.
I did so without LVM, just plain / ,/boot, /swap
However, we still have the two oustanding bugs:
1) Not being able to log in if SELINUX=enforce.
2) Not being able to use LVM with FC-5
If you need help debugging, let me know.
Thanks for you help,
-John.

Re: [Sisuite-devel] Missing Swap using 3.7.3 and 3.7.4 RH FC5
Swap is defined in the autoinstallscript.conf, but I guess the autoinstallscript wasn't properly generated.
I'm not too familiar with the LVM code, so perhaps Andrea can help you with this.
I suppose not using LVM is not an option...?
Cheers,
Bernard

RE: [Sisuite-devel] Missing Swap

Can you post your client image's /etc/systemimager/autoinstallscript.conf -
the image is stored in /var/lib/systemimager/images so the file I'm
referring to should be in your image server's:
/var/lib/systemimager/images/<image_name>/etc/systemimager/autoinstallscript.conf
Cheers,
Bernard

I see the following Warnings when I execute si_prepareclient:
Welcome to the SystemImager si_prepareclient command. This command may
modify

For this listing I'll assume that geometry.

Also, in the /var/lib/systemimager/scripts directory the image master file
does not contain anything to recreate the swap area see below:

Any ideas?
