Sharing partitions between FC4 and FC5
I've installed FC5 alongside FC4. Initially I just gave FC5 its own
/, /var and /usr partitions but then edited /etc/fstab to add partitions
that I want to share between FC4 and FC5: things like /home and /opt.
For each OS I use a different login with separate home directories.
This avoids problems with GNOME configurations and the like.
Then I rebooted into FC5 and forced a relabel. FC5 works fine but I'm
now unable to login to the GNOME desktop in FC4 unless I set enforcing=0
on boot. When I do that the log rapidly fills up with lines like:
Apr 1 10:30:24 random kernel: inode_doinit_with_dentry:
context_to_sid(user_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0) returned 22 for dev=dm-1 ino=352500
I'll attach the log messages I get when I try to login with SELinux
in enforcing mode.
