Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center.

It seems that a device node /dev/root is created when you boot from a non-LVM 
device.  This is probably a bug in the boot scripts which may tie in with the 
following bugzilla (about root= parameter being ignored in the case of LVM 
systems).

Anyway I have attached a policy patch that will work around the SE Linux 
aspects of this issue.
