My lvm is at /dev/volume_group/mylv, my lvm consisted of hde,g,i

Known issues with Debian:

 lvm.conf detect_md_component should be set to 1 not 0

 lvm.conf filters - check if cdrom drive is excluded correctly:
   sometimes the cdrom exclusion points to a real hard disk by mistake

Use pvscan -P to check what LVM2 actually sees.

Alasdair

lvm.conf and cdrom exclusion: checked and confirmed

pvscan -P gives me the following(scroll down). Seems ok for actual 
devices (/dev/hdb,f,h,j does not exist)

I am currently in status of what is described in thread "Can't mount 
after crash"
