That seems to fix the selinux problem but, unfortunately, another problem has been exposed. Now at the first reboot after installation, I get a number of "File not found" type messages. I cannot remember the exact wording of the messages but the gist of them was that /dev/root and /proc, amongst others, could not be found. /dev/root is sitting on my root (/) partition which I have formatted with a reiser fs. At first glance, it would seem that the root partition could not be mounted so the system could not find the files that it was looking for.

I finally figured out the problem. The kernel line in grub.conf contains root=LABEL=/ and fstab has a matching entry. This "mount by label" method does not work with reiserfs. I booted up in rescue mode and change LABEL=/ to /dev/sda2 in both grub.conf and fstab. That fixed the problem and my system now boots without problem.
