Dear FC4 Team, I have noticed my Flashmedia based block driver not working properly on FC4. ISSUE is: I am not able to format the Block device file using any of the mkfs* commands. Where as I am able to format the floopy drive. But, I am able to mount, read/write & dd the device file. Udev created the my flashmedia device file with following permission '640'. I was also successfull in changing the device file permissions to '777' using the the "/etc/udev/rules.d/fm.rules" file. But Still I am not able to format the card and it says: permission denied. I have noticed audit.log being updated with new error "denied" messages whenever I try to format the card. Please see the attachment to this mail. See the logs below as well: # tail /var/log/audit/audit.log | grep tfa type=PATH msg=audit(1131719847.291:372708): item=0 name="/dev/tfa3" inode=9633 dev=00:0d mode=060666 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=fc:18 type=AVC msg=audit(1131719847.291:372708): avc: denied { read } for pid=2849 comm="mkfs.vfat" name=tfa3 dev=tmpfs ino=9633 scontext=root:system_r:fsadm_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:device_t tclass=blk_file Regards, Mukund Jampala
