dump/restore selinux query

[John Austin]

Hi

I have recently used a bootable F17 memory stick (fully updated) to
dump/restore an un-mounted Centos 6.3 system root (/) partition
to a "clone" backup partition on a separate disk.

I obtain SELinux error messages during the restore phase

Does anyone (Daniel?) know:

Will this be a problem if/when I need to use the backup?

Regards

John
