thanks to everyone who replied particulary to gavin, the information
above solved my problem.

i downloaded the selinux-policy-targeted and policycoreutils RPMs from
ftp://people.redhat.com/dwalsh/SELinux/RHEL4/u1/ and did an rpm -Uvh
on those packages. everything went fine after that.

p.s.: with selinux still enabled, i had an error starting apache
afterwards. it was complaining about "bad user name apache" but i had
it fixed by running "/sbin/fixfiles restore"
