Did you enable Netlink support when you configured the kernel? What release of SELinux are you using?

If you build the module into the kernel, it won't show up in lsmod. What AVC errors are being logged? Did you run insmod after logging into the sysadm_r role? Also, is your kernel in permissive mode or enforcing mode?

ext3 works fine. It was only an issue when ext3 support wasn't in the mainstream kernel.
