Hmm. How can I get logs? /var is an lvm lv, and since lvm isn't
working nothing can be written to /var/log. (/usr and /home are also
on lvm, so when I try booting 2.6 all I have is /) The output I get
from running vgscan interactively is that no volume groups could be
found. Likewise from pvscan and lvscan. (if it would make a
difference, I can provide all the output, verbatim, later when I get
back to that machine's console)
-D
PS Shame on me - I did forget to check /var/log/{messages,syslog} in
the first place to see if they had any info.
