Let me ask this first: what is it exactly that you are trying to do? If
you are trying to mount a guest disk on dom0, why?
The times I've needed to access a VMs disk has been when something
terrible has happened to the VM and I've needed to mount the VMs disk so
I can recover information of try to fsck it. I do this by having a
stand-by VM that uses a different naming convention that my other VMs
use. This way I can use my test/rescue VM to mount up the other VMs
disks and fsck them, or recover data from them.

I don't really understand what you are saying here. What do you mean
when you say "I have 1 test/rescue VM that I create using
VolGroup/LogVol". Can you be a bit more explicit?
