Boot Error with SELinux

I've managed to install FC2T2 (after doing the boot disk swap with
T1). The install completed with no errors. However, I cannot boot the
machine at all.
This is from the boot sequence. Everything is normal through the Bogomips
check. Then I get:
Quote
Security Scaffold v1.0.0 initialized
SELinux: Initializing
SELinux: Starting in permissive mode
There is already a security framework initialized, register_security failed
Failure registering capabilities with the kernel
selinux_register_security: Registering secondary module security
Unquote
Then a bunch more normal messages including many
SELinux initialized (dev, type [futexfs | socksfs | proc | bdev] etc)
And lastly
Quote
INIT: version 2.85 booting
audit(1080597019.563:0): avc: denied {getattr} for pid=1 exe=/sbin/init
path=/dev/initctl dev=hdg9
Unquote
These audit message are about three lines of text each. And they scroll
repeatedly across my screen. I get some green OK's and a few red FAILED's
but then it goes to screen after screen of audit messages.
hdg9 is my root partition, BTW. That's the way it was for test 1 so I
didn't change the partition layout.
I'll put this into Bugzilla if anyone knows the tracking number. (I'm sure
it's been reported and I'd like to avoid logging a duplicate.)
Sorry if the above boot messages aren't verbatim. I had to copy them by hand.
