I installed a new disk with F34 and made the old disk with F33 on it the

/dev/sdb5 to /dev/sda5 and mounted that on /home I got this weird
problem - I have never seen it before:
When /dev/sdb5 is mounted on /home everything works as expected but when
I umount that drive and then mount /dev/sda5 on /home and try and login
as user "phr", I get an "unable to change to dir /home/phr" message and
end up at "/". However, if I just type "cd" and enter, I end up in
/home/phr and everything seems to be working! The dirs, files and
permissions on both partitions seem to be identical so I am stumped
about what is causing this login error . . any ideas?
It's probably an selinux issue. The labeling won't be correct because
of how you copied the files. When you have /dev/sda5 mounted on /home,
run "restorecon -rv /home" as root. See if that fixes the problem.
