This is SELinux causing you grief mate. Check the AVC errors using the
'dmesg' command as Jason suggested.
Excuse me but one question on SELinux at this place: is it really
necessary thing? - Did it help somehow to somebody or it just takes the
system resources?
Please, make a comment.

Hi, Thanks all. I put the dmesg results on

https://mywebspace.wisc.edu/hongyusun/web/dmesg.txt

I searched AVC on it. And it seems it got two lines including this word.

audit(1123688515.747:2): avc:  denied  { write } for  pid=1620
comm="fsck" name=rhgb-console dev=ramfs ino=5792
scontext=system_u:system_r:fsadm_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:ramfs_t
tclass=fifo_file
EXT3 FS on sda3, internal journal
SELinux: initialized (dev tmpfs, type tmpfs), uses transition SIDs
audit(1123688516.652:3): avc:  denied  { unlink } for  pid=1673
comm="swapon" name=blkid.tab.old dev=sda3 ino=2682231
scontext=system_u:system_r:fsadm_t tcontext=root:object_r:etc_t
tclass=file
Adding 5116660k swap on /dev/sda5.  Priority:-1 extents:1

So is it a SELinux issue?

I'd guess no, from these symptoms. These look like something from startup.

Also, I can report that I just installed Matlab 7.0.4 r14 SP2 on FC4, with selinux in enforcing mode using the latest targeted policy.

Sorry, I wasn't paying attention to this thread before I installed it myself. What was your issue again?


Many thanks,

HS
