Avc denied during kickstart cdrom install

Hi,

AVC messages appear because the kernel you are using for installation
supports SELinux and is running as "permissive" mode. ( If AVC messages
appear and the instalattion fails, it is running as "enforcing" mode. )
Appending "selinux=0" to the kernel boot command line work?
For example, if you have the following line in the isolinux.cfg
  append initrd=initrd.img ro
you can try
  append initrd=initrd.img ro selinux=0

I haven't tested, but if the kernel is running as "permissive" mode,
it seldom affect the installation process.

If this doesn't work, you can try a kernel with SELinux support disabled.
The keywords for Google are "SELinux" and "permissive".

Hope this helps.
