Can we have two kernels - one with SELinux and one without.
Boot with selinux=0, and the SELinux code is disabled.
Anaconda should install it by default, but there should be an option

Its up to the user how secure he/she wants to make their systems.
I read the wonderful news article about SELinux and how the NSA have inserted
their "security" code into Linux, but I cant see any technical detail.
Maybe if someone were to explain what they actually did then I might change my
