We never used label'ing of things in the initrd when it was an ext2
image.  The loader explicitly sets the exec context before running
anaconda to be system_u:object_r:anaconda_t if policy doesn't fail to
load.  Look in /tmp/anaconda.log (or tty3) for errors about loading the
policy or setting the context.
