*Never* use selinux=0 to temporarily disable SELinux. 

It shuts off SELinux *entirely*, so your system doesn't label new files
with correct SELinux permissions. When you turn SELinux back on, it'll
take a long time doing a filesystem relabel and/or you'll have broken
permissions on a bunch of files.

Use enforcing=0 instead.
