I guess it is an SELinux caused problem due to a missing trailing :z or :Z in the docker volume mount command?

Explored a little more, but today is the wrong day for more work on this issue.

It is clear that SELinux is the culprit causing the error.
I have not resolved the problem yet, but can diagnose - not sure that the jig code has to be adapted.

This works:

docker run --rm -it --name devtest -v /export/data:/data:z busybox

This does not:

docker run --rm -it --name devtest -v /run/media/arjen/a-drive:/data:z busybox

Apparently, the auto-mounted drive with the collection has different settings, maybe need a chcon command, TBD.
