Any suggestions on what to do next? I've noticed that lvm archives a volume group configuration when a change is made to it (under /etc/lvm/archive.. In plain text too!) By looking at these I can tell exactly what commands I ran in order to muck things up...

(btw, I've seen archived threads from what looks to be an old linux-lvm specific mailing list. Anyone know if this still exists? I can't find it anywhere) -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
