So far so good. But I would like to know why SELinux did this. And
what do I need to do to to make SELinux work on this machine? There seem
to be others that use it and it works without a problem.
If selinux is to blame for something, you always get a short AVC message
about what was denied. You can find these AVCs both on VC1 (during
boot/initscripts) and in /var/log/messages.
Put selinux back in permissive mode and copy the AVCs here. If there
are tons of them, just copy a representative sample.
# grep avc /var/log/messages
Also FWIW, if the story is that your symptoms exist in permissive mode
but not in disabled, you're really saying there is a bad and somewhat
unlikely bug in selinux.

Here is what I got the day of the problem:
