[Bug 1214964] New: Hold Option to select boot source on Mac hardware

by Red Hat Bugzilla

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1214964 Bug ID: 1214964 Summary: Hold Option to select boot source on Mac hardware Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: install-guide Assignee: pbokoc(a)redhat.com Reporter: beland(a)alum.mit.edu QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: pbokoc(a)redhat.com, zach(a)oglesby.co I'm not sure where to find the draft of the Fedora 22 Installation Guide, but I went through the Fedora 21 version steps in order to install the beta today. One suggestion for the new version of this page: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/21/html/Installation_Guide/cha... I recommend adding something like "On Mac hardware, hold down Option to enter the boot media selection menu." Mac hardware with Intel chips is rather common now, so I hope a significant number of people would be aided by that addition. I spent several hours trying to figure that out the first time I put Fedora on a Macbook. Thanks! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.

[Bug 1180524] New: confining users section unclear

by Red Hat Bugzilla

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1180524 Bug ID: 1180524 Summary: confining users section unclear Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: selinux-user-guide Assignee: mprpic(a)redhat.com Reporter: nmavrogi(a)redhat.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: mprpic(a)redhat.com, pkennedy(a)redhat.com, zach(a)oglesby.co The section 6 (confining users) in Fedora 21 documentation of SELinux is very unclear. 1. What does confining mean actually? How are they confined? What capabilities these user lose? These are crucial information, never discussed in the text. 2. In fedora with "seinfo -u" I see several selinux users. These, along with the limitation each has, are never discussed. 3. "6.5. xguest: Kiosk Mode": I miss some technical info on the restrictions of the xguest account. What that user can't do and what can it do. Without that information the text could just say, trust us we've done everything for you (nothing bad with it, except that in technical documentation you expect more). 4. I miss a "confining a server process/app" section. This is a very common usage for selinux but no information is provided about that at all. Can I put some server in a confined state, as the documentation discusses with the user? Do we provide some preconfigured selinux users, roles, types for that purpose? What about the sandbox tool we ship? That would be the information I'd expect from such a section. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.

[Bug 1180142] New: issues in the introduction of selinux-user-guide

by Red Hat Bugzilla

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1180142 Bug ID: 1180142 Summary: issues in the introduction of selinux-user-guide Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: selinux-user-guide Assignee: mprpic(a)redhat.com Reporter: nmavrogi(a)redhat.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: mprpic(a)redhat.com, pkennedy(a)redhat.com, zach(a)oglesby.co [Originally sent to authors of the document] I was trying to understand selinux using that guide, and had quite some issues in the introduction. I send you my issues in the hope they will help to improve the text. ------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 2. Introduction to SELinux: I couldn't really understand what is selinux based on this section. It says it is mandatory access control mechanism, and then it goes into length explaining the 'Discretionary Access Control (DAC) system' used typically in Linux. That's nice if you already know what selinux is, because you can see the difference, but the opposite what I'd expect at the moment since I have no idea what selinux is. My suggestion would be to add the description I saw in https://www.imperialviolet.org/2009/07/14/selinux.html "SELinux is fundamentally about answering questions of the form “May x do y to z?” and enforcing the result (x is subject, z is object) ... The action (y) boils down to a class and a permission. Each class can have up to 32 permissions (because they are stored as a bitmask in a 32-bit int). Examples of classes are FILE, TCP_SOCKET and X_EVENT. For the FILE class, some examples of permissions are READ, WRITE, LOCK etc." At least for me that was all the information that I needed to understand what I can do with SELinux. A complete pictures may require to go into a bit more length with explaining what can be a subject, object and actions. Then mentioning about MAC and explaining it in addition to DAC will be more natural IMO. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.1. Benefits of running SELinux This is section vaguely defines domain. I reached "3.1. Domain Transitions" and didn't know what a domain was. Maybe add a definition of domain in 3.1 or earlier in the introduction. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 3. SELinux Contexts level: It explains that in Fedora there is a single sensitivity and multiple categories. I miss what are these categories intended to be used to? An example with two different categories would be helpful. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.

[Bug 1231578] New: No valid SHA1 checksums in checksum file

by Red Hat Bugzilla

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1231578 Bug ID: 1231578 Summary: No valid SHA1 checksums in checksum file Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: install-guide Assignee: pbokoc(a)redhat.com Reporter: misterfluff(a)me.com QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org CC: pbokoc(a)redhat.com, zach(a)oglesby.co Description of problem: Following the installation procedure for Fedora 22 the section in 3,3,2 (verifying checksums on Linux and OS X systems) fails. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora-Live-Scientific_KDE-x86_64-22-3.iso How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download Fedora-Live-Scientific_KDE-x86_64-22-3.iso from spins page 2. Download Fedora-Spins-x86_64-22-CHECKSUM 3. shasum -a 256 -c *CHECKSUM Actual results: Fedora-Spins-x86_64-22-CHECKSUM: no properly formatted SHA1 checksum lines found Expected results: Success, of course...:) Additional info: Additional checksum file Fedora-Workstation-22-x86_64-CHECKSUM file gave same result. Also performed "curl https://getfedora.org/static/fedora.gpg | gpg --import" with no change in eventual result. Is the process the same for checking a spin install versus the regular workstation? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.
