You don't need to patch the kernel any more. It is there. From `make xconfig`: NSA SELinux Support (SECURITY_SELINUX) This selects NSA Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux). You will also need a policy configuration and a labeled filesystem. You can obtain the policy compiler (checkpolicy), the utility for labeling filesystems (setfiles), and an example policy configuration from <http://www.nsa.gov/selinux/>. If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N. I don't think we should address SELinux at all in BLFS. If it is mentioned at all it should be in HLFS. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
