Postgresql does not start on reboot but starts normally with "pg_ctl
start". Running FC5 with selinux enabled.

# chkconfig --list postgresql
postgresql 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off

/etc/selinux/config:

SELINUX=enforcing
SELINUXTYPE=targeted
SETLOCALDEFS=0

In /var/log/messages there is this message:

kernel: audit(1151719618.110:4): avc: denied { search } for
pid=1849 comm="postmaster" name="/" dev=sdb1 ino=2
scontext=system_u:system_r:postgresql_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t:s0 tclass=dir

There is a simlink in /var/lib/pgsql/data pointing to /disk2/pg_xlog
which is in sbd1 and is owned by postgres.

If is this a selinux problem, how can I configure it to let postgres
use the pg_xlog dir in /disk2 on startup?
