Or maybe a selinux free fedora spin?

Why not? I don't want it on my machine, either. I suspect quite
a few people would prefer not to have it. It could be made
an optional part of the install. Putting selinux as a requirement
into the individual packages is silly. If RPM is incapable of
recognizing some sort of package dependency like "I play with
these versions, but do not require any of them", then RPM needs
an enhancemet.

Hi Mike, I looked at my dmesg and here is the part about selinux:
SELinux: Completing initialization.
SELinux: Setting up existing superblocks.
SELinux: initialized (dev hdb5, type ext3), uses xattr
SELinux: initialized (dev usbfs, type usbfs), uses genfs_contexts

SELinux: initialized (dev selinuxfs, type selinuxfs), uses genfs_contexts

This tells me that init is running a selinux demon and I know how to
stop that I think. I looked at /etc/rc.d/init.d/ but no selinux switch.
So I ask where in hell is it?
[root@k5d init.d]# whereis selinux
selinux: /etc/selinux /usr/include/selinux /usr/share/selinux
/usr/share/man/man8/selinux.8.gz
[root@k5d init.d]#
So there is some reading that needs doing.
