I have a centos 6.6 laptop which is having trouble (intermittent boot failures, or more rightly so, multiple failures, intermittent booting). The laptop is running selinux. I pulled the second internal disk out to get my data off of it. I plugged it into my centos 5.x machine and mounted it. I was able to do a dir listing, but whrn I tried to cd into any of the directories, I get a bunch of AVC denials, and I can't see any files. The contos 5.x machine is selinux enforcing, and so is the centos 6.x box. The files are all owned by me, and have the same uid/gid on both boxes.
What is the right way to do this?
Mount with a permissive context: mount -o context=unconfined_u:object_r:default_t
If you mount without that, ls -Z will show you the labeling and you can probably figure out why you're getting the denials based on the AVC message.
