Public bug reported:
I tried to install selinux with sudo apt-get install selinux.
Upon reboot one of the error messages was that the file system was not writable
and could not make the directory /root/selinux. There was another complaint
that may be related to gnome on the system, but that may not be relevant. I
could not switch screens and log in to fix
anything. When I tried and the password was accepted the screen would blank
and give another
login prompt.
I booted the system on an installation CD and remounted the directories on
/mnt. Then I chroot
to /mnt and then did sudo apt-get remove selinux.
I had to do the recover routine and dpkg and then clean to get the
system back to being stable.
I can't confirm which version of selinux it was (probably in the logs).
