in the mounted root of the partition the command used was

tar -czf /mnt/stor/system.gz *

to put the tarball on a NAS.

I can get to the F33 from an f31 install on the same computer, mounted on /mnt/sysimage and doing the binds to /dev, /proc, and /sys followed by

chroot gets me in to look at everything. Everything I look into looks correct. Short of ideas

I have never tried using a tar file to restore.  However using tar (both creating and restoring) without
using the --selinux parameter won't preserve selinux context.

Have you tried booting after adding "selinux=0" to the linux line in grub?

"selinux=0" works I'll do the .autorelabel

.autorelabel doesn't get everything apparently. From a texmode boot as user, startx for the graphical desktop fails saying it can't find a screen. The ati 5450 has on a minimal xinitrc with no screen paragraphs. However, from root it works.

Put selinux=0 in the kernal command in grub allows user to dos startx but there are I/O problems with the mouse.

All the permissions look as expected
