You cannot use the KDM bootloader integration with SELinux. It is disabled
by default for a reason. The SELinux policy maintainers do not want to
allow this by default for security reasons, so you have only 4 options:
* disable SELinux entirely,
* set SELinux to permissive,
* use audit2allow to create a custom SELinux policy to allow this or
* just turn that feature off in KDM.
