+<title>Switching Types</title>
+<body>
+
+<p>
+It is not recommended to switch between types often. At best, you choose your
+policy type at install type and stick with it. But it is not impossible (nor
+that hard) to switch between types.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+First, you need to edit <path>/etc/selinux/config</path> so that it both
+switches the policy type as well as put the mode in <e>permissive</e>. This is
+necessary, since at your next reboot, many labels might (or will) be incorrect.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Next, edit <path>/etc/fstab</path> and make sure that the domains you use there
+are updated accordingly. For instance, the line for <path>/tmp</path>:
+</p>
+
+<pre caption="Changing /etc/fstab">
+<comment># Example when switching from strict to mcs</comment>
+tmpfs  /tmp  tmpfs  defaults,noexec,nosuid,rootcontext=system_u:object_r:tmp_t<i>:c0</i>  0 0
+</pre>
+
+<p>
+When this is done, reboot your system. Log on as root, and relabel your entire
+file system using <c>rlpkg -a -r</c>. Finally, reboot again and then validate if
+your context (such as when logged on as a user) is correct again. Once you are
+confident that the domains and contexts are correct, switch the SELinux policy
+mode back to "enforcing".
