My setup must be somewhat different from yours because my second HD is /dev/hdb2. In any event, here is screen copy of what I tried. [root@localhost ~]# ls -Zd /mnt/hdb1 ls: /mnt/hdb1: No such file or directory [root@localhost ~]# ls -Zd /mnt/hdb1 ls: /mnt/hdb1: No such file or directory [root@localhost ~]# ls -Zd /dev/hdb1 brw-r----- root disk system_u:object_r:fixed_disk_device_t /dev/hdb1 [root@localhost ~]# df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 17775388 2423964 14433920 15% / /dev/hda1 101086 14054 81813 15% /boot /dev/hdb1 19243740 176288 18089900 1% /backup tmpfs 257324 0 257324 0% /dev/shm [root@localhost ~]# ls -Zd /backup drwxr-xr-x root root system_u:object_r:file_t /backup [root@localhost ~]# restorecon /backup [root@localhost ~]# ls -Zd /backup drwxr-xr-x root root system_u:object_r:default_t /backup [root@localhost ~]# chcon -t root_t /backup [root@localhost ~]# ls -Zd /backup drwxr-xr-x root root system_u:object_r:root_t /backup [root@localhost ~]# After the chcon and rebooting the system, the HAL denied messages did not occur. I still have more experimenting to do with data under /backup.
