kernel-2.6.6-1.427... update questions?

[Tom London]

kernel-2.6.6-1.427 has made it to the 'released updates' tree.

My other system that is running this version is also running the new 
selinux-policy packages, and I previously needed to add 'selinux=1' to 
the boot params.

Before I test it out on my 'real machine', anyone know if .427 will work 
with the old policy packages, file tree (/etc/security/selinux vs. 
/etc/selinux) and config file (/etc/sysconfig/selinux vs. 
/etc/selinux/config)?  Do I still need the 'selinux=1' boot param?

thanks

OK.  I tested the waters myself.

1. 'selinux=1' is no longer needed as bootparam.
2.  kernel-2.6.6-1.427 works just fine with 'old' policy packages.
3.  works fine with 'old' /etc/sysconfig/selinux.

I installed and test booted it:  came up in enforcing mode with no problems.
