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.
