OK, I can understand that.  However, the release notes (or some other release 
documentation) should point this out.  Given this situation and vmware, I 
will create some server-only guests to try things out.

Ditto on documentation.  When I first tried SELinux in FC2, "strict" was it 
but everything more or less worked.

At this point, I have no idea as to the kernel panic cause on the Dell 350 and 
may not be able to address that given other circumstances.  However, I did 
notice that a number of services did have startup and/or shutdown 
problems ... this occurred on both strict and mls although at this point I do 
not know if they are the same services.

Given the same services, some do not work properly under strict but function 
just fine under targeted.
