kernel-2.6.5-1.332 and selinux???? fixfiles hangs system......

[t l]

yum'ed todays updates (all 30 of them), including kernel-2.6.5-1.332, etc.  Since there was no new policy or policy-sources rpm, I did not "fixfiles relabel" afterwards.

On rebooting I noticed new "avc denied" messages in /var/log/messages from init, mingetty, Xorg etc., so I figured I needed to "relabel".

I dropped back to single user ("telinit 1") and ran "fixfiles relabel".

After producing most of the usual messages ("cleaning out /tmp", etc.) and working for what seemed to be the customary period (about 4-5 minutes), I noticed that the system appeared "sort of" hung.

keyboard echo was working, CTL-Z produced "stopped" message, but I could not get a shell prompt.

After several more minutes, I pushed the reset button and rebooted.  

I am still getting "new" avc/denied messages in syslog.

Anyone have thoughts?
