I'm reaching the end of my patience. I've struggled with this all week. Now,
trying to connect with wpa_supplicant I get selinux denials. It tells me to
run a restorecon - which doesn't work. I'll turn it to permissive for now and
see if I can get any further. If I don't get anywhere today I'm bailing out.
There's a limit to how much time I can give this, when I know I can get other
distros working.
