As I indicated in a previous message, I am migrating a samba server from
FC3 to FC5 and have run into another SELINUX policy issue.  I have a
second hard drive with a single ext3 partition that I primarly use for
backups.  It is labeled /backup.  I did a mkdir /backup and entered the
appropriate line into fstab.  When I reboot, I get the following

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Apr  7 21:08:11 localhost kernel: audit(1144458480.400:2): avc:  denied  {
getattr } for  pid=2036 comm="hald" name="/" dev=hdb1 ino=2
scontext=system_u:system_r:hald_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t:s0
tclass=dir
Apr  7 21:08:11 localhost kernel: audit(1144458480.444:3): avc:  denied  {
getattr } for  pid=2036 comm="hald" name="/" dev=hdb1 ino=2
scontext=system_u:system_r:hald_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t:s0
tclass=dir
Apr  7 21:08:11 localhost kernel: audit(1144458480.516:4): avc:  denied  {
getattr } for  pid=2036 comm="hald" name="/" dev=hdb1 ino=2
scontext=system_u:system_r:hald_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t:s0
tclass=dir

What do I need to do to support the /backup partition with SELINUX?
