Summary:

SELinux is preventing gconfd-2 from creating a file with a context of
unlabeled_t on a filesystem.

Detailed Description:

[SELinux is in permissive mode, the operation would have been denied but was
permitted due to permissive mode.]

SELinux is preventing gconfd-2 from creating a file with a context of
unlabeled_t on a filesystem. Usually this happens when you ask the cp command to
maintain the context of a file when copying between file systems, "cp -a" for
example. Not all file contexts should be maintained between the file systems.
For example, a read-only file type like iso9660_t should not be placed on a r/w
system. "cp -P" might be a better solution, as this will adopt the default file
context for the destination.

Allowing Access:

Use a command like "cp -P" to preserve all permissions except SELinux context.
