I can't boot one of my FC4 system.  I am getting the following error message
and init can't start.

audit(1154201702.315.303): avc :denied {search} for pid=748 comm="mingetty"
name="/" dev tmpfs ino 504 scontext=system_u : system_r : getty_t
tcontext=system_u: object_r : tmpfs_ tclass=dir
INIT : Id 1 respawning too fast : disabled for 5 mins
INIT : Id 3 respawning too fast : disabled for 5 mins
INIT : Id 4 respawning too fast : disabled for 5 mins
INIT : Id 6 respawning too fast : disabled for 5 mins
INIT : Id 2 respawning too fast : disabled for 5 mins
INIT : Id 5 respawning too fast : disabled for 5 mins

INIT : no more processes left in this runlevel.

I have commented the lines in inittab for mingetty and the error message
changes to:

INIT: cannot execute /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit
Entering runlevel 3
cannot execute /etc/rc.d/rc
INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel

the audit message id is incremented as well as the pid. ino 504, 505 but
same mingetty error message.  I have already checked file attributes for rc
and rc.sysinit.  It has not changed and is rwxr-xr-x.  The INIT Id changes
as well.

Thanks for all help or reference to web sites for solutions.
