My first thought was somewhat similar to David's suggestion.

Rawhide is not for doing stuff that's important to oneself; if it 
breaks, fixing it's your own problem, and it may be difficult and it may 
be annoying, but it's not urgent.

It seems to me Antonio, that you ask rather a lot of questions. I don't 
mind that so much, but I really think that you could resolve some of 
these problems yourself.

You should read the relevant documentation; if (as is likely on rawhide) 
the documentation doesn't relate directly to the version you're running, 
use the latest you can find.

Ask google

Try things. Your rawhide system isn't important, so breaking it doesn't 
matter.

Describe exactly what you did, what messages you see (cut and paste if 
at all possible), and what you have tried.

Your question really is too vague for anyone to help except by a lucky 
guess.


Read the three documents referenced in my sig.

Note:
In your question, you said, "I set Selinux to enforced "

Shrek-m said, "i use  'selinux=permissive.'"

You then ask, "how do I boot in permissive mode????"
Really!!

Nobody here's your slave. It's time you learned to make a decent effort 
yourself, before asking such questions. I'm sure I've seen it in selinux 
documents, in mailing lists and in other places.
