Thanks for explaining this. I have relabeld my filesystem
with "/sbin/fixfiles relabel /" and set selinux to permissive mode. But
then I'm getting a lot of this errors when booting the livecd:

Strange is that the timestamp of the files in /dev/.udev (on livecd)
is the time of creation of the livecd.

Not sure about this (as I've said: sadly not much experiences with
selinux). Chitlesh Goorah guessed that this problem is located on my
host system. So I will set up a really clear installation this evening.
