I just did a Fedora 7 install a week or two ago on a friends computer and I'm pretty sure it didn't ask a yes/no question for SELinux, but rather whether you wanted an enforcing, permissive or disabled policy (with a strong recommendation NOT to choose disabled). Anyhow, yes, just choose SELINUX=disabled and it will be turned completely off. Jonathan
