anyone running SELinux on amazon EC2?

Hi,
Has anyone enabled SELinux on Amazon EC2?
I tried to enable SELinux using a CentOS image, and the steps in the following post, but it didn't work!!
Amazon Web Services Developer Community : Has anyone successfully enabled SELinux ...

The steps i took:
1)I started with CentOS 5.3 base image (ami-10b55379)
2) yum install sel*
3) Everything installs correctly, however "sestatus" shows that SELinux is disabled
4) /etc/sysconfig/selinux shows enforcing mode
5) touch /.autorelabel
6) reboot

Even after reboot, "sestatus" shows that SELinux is disabled!!

Any help/suggestions in this matter is quite appreciated.

Thanks,
indra
