From what it sounds like you want a SELinux free system. you might want to try the LFS livecd instead of RH due to RH having SELinux enabled from the start. (not sure if the lfs livecd has libselinux installed or not) but if it doesn't then life for you will be easier, as opposed to a system have all of the SELinux infrastructure compiled in it.
