Centos5.5 with SElinux

Hello All,

I have just signed up for a linode account and i have now discovered that Linode's version of Centos does not have SElinux. :x

I have installed the standard centos distribution kernel and it seemed to boot ok.

However after following the centos part of the following link;

http://library.linode.com/linode-platfo … o#centos_5">http://library.linode.com/linode-platform/custom-instances/pv-grub-howto#centos_5

I found at the bottom of this web page there is a note that the standard centos distribution kernel does not work on linode.

A centos bug report states that the kernel options required by linode are unavailable with the standard centos distribution kernel and wont be available until centos 6

http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=3372

This seem to relate to Centos 5.2, but as i am using Centos5.5 and the standard distribution kernel seems to boot ok - does anyone know if it ok the use the standard Centos5.5 distribution kernel with a linode VPS?

jk
