Did you install selinux-policy-strict?

this procedure might work:

yum install selinux-policy-strict
edit /etc/selinux/config SELINUXTYPE=strict
touch /.autorelabel && reboot
when it boots go to grub menu and append: 3 enforcing=0

This will load in runlevel3 with selinux in permissive mode to ensure
that it can relavel the file system.
