I just upgrade to f7 and wanted to use xen to build a couple of vms to have as test boxes. Unfortunately every time I build a F7 guest it refuses to boot correctly hanging on selinux testing the usbfs, I read in the Docs this about SELINUX: The SELinux policy in Fedora 7 has the neccessary rules to allow use of Xen with SELinux enabled. The main caveat to be aware of is that any file backed disk images need to be in a special directory - /var/lib/xen/images. This applies both to regular disk images, and ISO images. Block device backed disks are already labelled correctly to allow them to pass SELinux checks. So, if I create a 10GB file for the image of the guest I'm building, I /must/ put it in /var/lib/xen/images? Is that how this reads?
The default SELinux policy will work fine with that directory. Any other directory might require changes in the policy. You might want to ask in fedora-xen list or fedora-selinux list about any changes required if you need to use a different directory.
