Bug Description

Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty ) working OK after online upgrade from Intrepid. 2-3 days ago a recommend upgrade was accepted and this new kernel was installed. The boot process stops a few seconds after the splash screen appears.
I edited grub to remove "splash".
Kernel panic occurs on the 2nd page:
avc_has_perm_noaudit+0x186/0x1b0 SS:ESP 0068:c072bc14
Kernel panic-not syncing Fatal exception in interrupt

If I boot from the "recovery" line of grub for this kernel and choose the 1st option "Continue with normal boot" the boot process continues perfectly.

Rebooting and selecting the "normal" - top line 2.6.28-13-generic boot:
I edited grub and changed SELINUX=1 to SELINUX=0 which I presume disables SELINUX. The boot process progresses normally.

Is this due to a conflict between AppArmor and Selinux? Does one or the other have to be disabled?

AppArmor and SElinux both do the same thing. Try to disable AppArmor and see if that helps solve problem.

The default is: apparmor.enabled=0 selinux=1 which "stops loading"

The following option combos boot OK:

apparmor.enabled=1 selinux=0

AND

apparmor.enable=0 selinux=0

This kernel, at least on my machine, does not run SELINUX. I will enable apparmor and will not attempt to remove SELINUX.
