Please do not recommend people turn SELinux off if a problem happens,  you can
ask them to put SELinux into permissive mode by executing "# setenforce 0", if
they can get to the root shell.  Or you can use the boot flag "enforcing=0"
which will boot with SELinux in permissive mode.

Another thing to look at if you believe SELinux is causing havoc in your
homedir, is run restorecon -R -v /home
