I'm trying to setup SELinux on Debian 6 according to (the instructions reported on the Debian wiki).

I've run this commands:

apt-get install selinux-basics selinux-policy-default 
selinux-activate

After reboot, the system should have taken a while to label the filesystems on boot and then rebooted a second time when that was complete. However, neither labeling nor rebooting occurred.

The command:

check-selinux-installation

returns:

/usr/sbin/check-selinux-installation:19: DeprecationWarning: os.popen3 is deprecated.  Use the subprocess module.
  @staticmethod
/usr/sbin/check-selinux-installation:23: DeprecationWarning: os.popen2 is deprecated.  Use the subprocess module.
  def fix():
getfilecon:  getfilecon(/proc/1) failed
SELinux is not enabled.
Could not read the domain of PID 1.
/etc/pam.d/login is not SELinux enabled
FSCKFIX is not enabled - not serious, but could prevent system from booting...

This is strange because the kernel is SELinux-enabled, and the grub.cfg does contain the "selinux=1" option.

Any suggestion?

Thanks.

I've just uploaded selinux-basics 0.5.1 to Debian experimental. Could you please try with that version. But anyway, you could use sestatus to check the status of selinux on your system. – Bigon Dec 15 '12 at 13:32
