Hi Venkatesh:

The error you mention is a typical 'SELinux labelling error'.

It is usually encountered when you had installed F8 with SELinux enabled and 
then
tried to modify/update partition tables.

To be on the safe side, please do a full SELinux relabel of the system.

Here are the steps.

 su -c "touch /.autorelabel"
 enter the root password
 let the command run
 reboot the machine

This should fix the issue.

Please let us know how it goes.

thanks
Saifi.
