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

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.
Ah yes, that sounds like the problem - thanks!
Phil.
