I did remove ALL the .../security for all the partitions and did a make initinstall in the policy (instruction 5 and 7 in the installation guide) but no luck. I noticed on the installation guide, it mentioned: "Although this invalidates any existing file labels, it does not clear the persistent SID values in the inodes. Consequently, some warnings are likely when the file system is relabeled in step 12. A program will be provided in the future to clear the persistent SID values." does this cause the make relabel to fail since inodes never get clean up? are there any work arounds?
