1) Boot from a LiveCD or LiveUSB with only one hard drive connected.
2) Rename the volume group on that hard drive (using the "vgrename" command)
3) Plug the second hard drive, and boot into Linux from the hard drive
4) Activate the other LVM ("vgchange -ay" is a quick way to do this)
5) Mount the other LVM partitions as necessary ("mount /dev/mapper/blah... /mnt/somewhere", changing the paths to match your situation, or just use Nautilus to handle the mounting)

Hope that helps.

And if I had installed with conventional directories I would simply mount the other hard drive and extract the information I needed.

Yet another example of why I should not be installing with LVM, nothing I do gains anything from LVM, it is just another layer of unwanted complexity for this Fedora user.

I am sure your suggestions would help if I was inclined to pursue this.

Thank you,

Bob

    I have two drives in this computer, sda has Fedora 19 installed on
    it, sdb has Fedora 20, both the dreaded LVM's!

    What esoteric string of commands is required to permit access to
    the Download directory on F-19 from F-20?

    At this point I am considering re-installing both using a
    conventional directory system such as I have just installed for
    Fedora 20 and Centos 6.5 on another computer ...

    Any suggestions appreciated,

    Bob
