Sorry for my newness. I quite often make these mistakes, I try so hard to be smart and figure things out, however I always seem to piss someone off along the way.

You're making it damn near impossible to carry on a conversation when you start new threads instead of replying to the prior one. Even more so when it quotes nothing from the prior one. I received somewhere around 200 messages today, likewise yesterday. I, nor others, do not remember everything that was in yesterday's mail. Nor will we feel like reading through every one of them trying to piece your disassociated message into where it belongs. It's far easier to just hit delete. I'm writing this, rather than hitting delete, for *YOUR* benefit, and a few others who do the same thing on this list. If you want to use a mailing list, you'll have to learn how to fit in with how they're run: * Reply to a message by "replying" to it. Use the function actually called "reply" in your mail client. * Quote enough of the prior message for yours to make sense without anybody having to go and find your prior message. Do *NOT* quote the entire thing unnecessarily. * Write responses to specific parts of a message *directly* under where the bit you're responding to is. So the whole thing reads like a coherent conversation, in itself. (Called interspersed quoting.) You should be able to see how this is done by looking at most of the other messages on the list. If you ignore the advice, you'll get ignored by other list participents. Possibly by the ones with the answer to your queries. -- (This box runs FC5, my others run FC4 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)

Certainly everyone seems to advise against it. I think the bootloader proper (the bit in the MBR or wherever) only has a very simple view of the partitioning, which would not include LVM, I imagine.

To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Message-ID: <4690DDC5.9060606@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Hi all, I think I've been stupid or framed or both. I wanted to samba share a USB disk on a F7 system but got an SELinux message saying that the directory could not be shared, and that there was a command to get it right (=wrong?). So I typed in chcon -t samba_share_t -R / Yes, that's what was in the SElinux message thingie as suggestion. And being a total SELinux nitwit I did what the almighty Linux system adviced. So it took a while before getting "operation not permitted" on /dev/.... Then I cancelled the operation but the damage has apparently already been made. I retyped the command with the proper directory to share and now the share worked. But when I restarted the system all kinds of services were broken including /dev/eth0. The kernel could not find the eth0 device. The X configuration was gone and all kinds of errors were smashed into my face. So it looks like the SELinux (or me myself?) has scrambled my harddisk. I cannot even login anymore. The system is completely dead. Some 'simple' questions: Why did this go wrong? What actually did go wrong? What to do next? Re-install? That would be a bummer.

The easiest way to get it working again would be to append "selinux=0" in GRUB when you boot the computer. You'll have to ask some of the SELinux experts here how to reset the contexts to what they're supposed to be. Jonathan -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
