9 From the denials and your kernel configuration, I think you are using an
10 initrd or initramfs system. Currently, we do not support SELinux when using
11 initrd/initramfs because the suckers don't play well. There's an open bug on
12 it, and I hope I can get us with a working initramfs soon.

14 But for the mean time, either drop the initramfs/initrd system, or boot in
15 permissive mode and switch to enforcing during the boot-up (for instance
16 through an init script in the boot runlevel).
