Already tried using http, and got the same result. I don't think,
therefore, that the method of install is the problem at all. I think there
may be some hardware compatibility problem with that (and possibly other)
component of SELinux.

That's precisely what I was thinking of doing. Just haven't got the chance
to do that yet. I'll be busy the next few days hopefully next week I can
try again.

Might want to try that in addition to ripping out the RPMs, tho I'm not
sure doing both would be necessary.


Maybe it's the CPU that's having a problem with SELinux under CentOS 6?

Dunno.. but thanks for the advice! I look forward to my next attempt to
this. I'd really rather not have to buy new hardware just to run centos 6.
There are several libraries and packages that I need from 6 that I don't
feel like futzing with on 5 (python and some of it's tools like
python-virt-inst) immediately come to mind.


Thanks for your input guys!
