Whoops - my original reply was meant to address using "cp -a" which
will not copy contexts - "cp -aZ" will do though - you have to think
SELinux all the time in F10!
If you make a copy without copying the contexts for an F10 system with
SElinux enabled and enforcing then it won't work... or at least not
without giving AVC denials in an unmanagable stream!
