Hi I have recently used a bootable F17 memory stick (fully updated) to dump/restore an un-mounted Centos 6.3 system root (/) partition to a "clone" backup partition on a separate disk. I obtain SELinux error messages during the restore phase Does anyone (Daniel?) know: Will this be a problem if/when I need to use the backup?
