If the SELinux kURL addon is configured, kURL install will not prompt to disable it when installing and apply any supplied configs.

```auto
apiversion: cluster.kurl.sh/v1beta1
kind: Installer
metadata:
  name: ""
spec:
  selinuxConfig:
    selinux: "enforcing"
    preserveConfig: false
    disableSelinux: false

```

You can add this config in one of two ways.

- Using a kURL YAML [Patch file](https://kurl.sh/docs/install-with-kurl/) and applying the config at kurl install time.  
`curl https://kurl.sh/latest | sudo bash -s installer-spec-file=[path to YAML patch]`

- Adding the kURL YAML to the kURL installer in [vendor.replicated.com](https://vendor.replicated.com/).

But please note its up to the customer to ensure SELinux is configured properly and support for these installs is provided on a best-effort basis. Overall the end-customer is responsible for SELinux.
