According to few sources (gentoo wiki, linuxconfig.org) on how fstab should be: they have the LVM volumes labeled as ext4 (or whatever the actual fs is) but the mountpoint is not /dev/sdx#, rather it uses the lvm dev mapping, or however you call it: from http://linuxconfig.org/Linux_lvm_-_Logical_Volume_Manager: > /dev/mynew_vg/vol01 /home/foobar/ ext3 yadda yadda from http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/LVM#.2Fetc.2Ffstab: >/dev/vg0/lvol1 /mnt/data ext4 noatime 0 2 So whatever Andrea called their virtual group is what it must be set to. If you go to the Archwiki, it uses 'VolGroup00' as the volume group. Use vgdisplay to figure out the volume group name. Note: I do not use LVM myself, so please keep that in mind.
