Your audit ... avc messages are coming from SELinux and wrong permissions on files. You will probably just need to run "fixfiles relabel" to straighten everything out at once. 2. etc/resolv.conf is where your DNS servers are listed and probably handed out by DHCP unless you set up your DNS as static. If it is DHCP then again it is a permissions issue but not with SELinux. 3. clvmd is a separate service that is not starting up, and will not affect the system 4. The problem with the login screen is someone decided to remove the "Default" so you need to start your machine with init 3 and change this to "Blue Curve" or some other. Thanx, Don
