/dev/sda2 and /dev/sdb1 are kaput (both drives died within days of eachother).
I believe I had 4 logical volumes.
I would say that it can depend on what is the block allocation policy of the LVM system...
So I presume this means each LV resided on a separate drive and probably lv01 and lv02 were the 2 on the 2 dead disk drives.
* PVs on four SCSI devices * A VG called "vg01" comprised of said PVs
If I reinstall lvm on my newly installed system can I recover lv03 and lv04?
You should try LVM2 that can deal with partial/truncated volumes.
