kernel-2.6.31-2.fc12.x86_64 ?
To: fedora-test-list@redhat.com Date: Monday, September 14, 2009, 12:34 AM Reboot after update halts on gdm with black screen .
gdm is active but not visible ,because one hit of tab and enter reboots .
While this was the first kernel update with dracut initramfs on my system ,I suspect a rules conflict with selinux .

I've spend allot of time searching bugzilla ,fedora forum ,dracut pages all around ,and found no related problems.
Do I have to report this one ? And to what party ?
Sincerely ,

modprobe.d error/denied avc:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=523039
It is either one or both of them?
BTW, have you tried booting into level 3 and then startx from there. I encountered something similar and overcame it using this trick. I did not report back since I was watching football :(, and apologize in advance.
Regards,
Antonio

Well ... neither explains WHEN selinux complains. I mean its unclear in what context . But the latter (your's) seems to be it.
In the meanwhile I had started the system several times with init 3 , and sure startx works fine .
But I suppose it needs some work ,to have a "normal" graphical start.
After experimenting some reinstalls (dracut,selinux,kernel&headers&firmware ,etc) I thought to simplify the initramfs making my own for this hardware ( #dracut -H ),doing so eliminating some possible sources of troubles.
It fired back ,now I have problems with dracut making a initramfs !
At this moment I'm in the process of finding out !?
Ill notice when I see the light : )
NB : Controll Alt F# didn't give me a console .Only reboot and init 3 got me to it.
Regards, and thanks for the reply : )
