How to disable SELINUX using grub?












0















I accidentally enabled SELINUX and reboot the system without knowing it's consequence. Now, I can't access the login system in my CENTOS 7 unit.



What I've tried so far:



https://serverfault.com/questions/501304/disable-selinux-permanently



kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-358.2.1.el6.x86_64 ro root=/dev/xvda1 rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_LVM rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=us crashkernel=auto console=tty0 selinux=0



and this



cat /etc/grub.conf



........
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-279.el6.x86_64 root=/dev/md3 selinux=0
initrd /initramfs-2.6.32-279.el6.x86_64.img
.........



but after I reboot the system, I still can't login.



Can anyone help me fix these?
Also what is the purpose of root=/dev/xda or /dev/md3 idk which part of this I should follow. I'm a newbie.
