Question disable selinux

Is there a way to disable selinux? For some reason I more and more errors when running processes. Sometimes it even terminates the process. Is it a good idea to disable selinux? I am using FC5. your input is appreciated!

To disable immediately run:

setenforce 0

To disable after reboot edit the file /etc/selinux/conf:

SELINUX=disabled

Save it and reboot.

You can also apped the following to your kernel line in grub

selinux=0

The disable after boot above should be done even if you do the immediate disable so that the next time you boot it doesn't turn selinux back on.
