I don’t believe that the volume will be mounted on boot in /run/media, that is for storage mounted by a user logged at the console. It would make more sense to set up a systemd .mount and .automount unit for the device and mount point (someplace outside of /run, such as /srv/mountpointname). Then set up the labels correctly. You need to use a file system that supports extended attribute if you want it to work with selinux, so XFS or ext4. -- Jonathan Billings _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
