Kernel panic – not syncing: Attempted to kill init! CentOS

Just installed CentOS 6.2 into a VMWare environment and rebooted and got:

Kernel panic – not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

The cause was I had edited /etc/selinux/config to disable selinux but edited the wrong settting:

This is the mistake I made

# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system. # SELINUX= can take one of these three values: #     enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced. #     permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing. #     disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded. SELINUX=enforcing # SELINUXTYPE= can take one of these two values: #     targeted - Targeted processes are protected, #     mls - Multi Level Security protection. SELINUXTYPE=disabled

This is what it should have looked like

# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system. # SELINUX= can take one of these three values: #     enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced. #     permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing. #     disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded. SELINUX=disabled # SELINUXTYPE= can take one of these two values: #     targeted - Targeted processes are protected, #     mls - Multi Level Security protection. SELINUXTYPE=targeted
