Hi all,
Not anyone out there having a clue on what to do? It seems that about the same thing has happened to the submitter of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=142737 "Fedora Core 3 system with lvm2 won't boot". Is this acceptable? Because of its impact., this is the kind of bug my company would consider a "show-stopper", and relabel the project "beta" again.
So if there is no way to fix the error, is there any way to recover any of my ~300GB of data? Fourtunately I have backuped all the crucial stuff, but there are a lot of things I would want to recover.
Best regards,
Daniel

Is this perhaps why I cant mount it? How can I restore? I still am a bit confused with Metadata file saying: pv0 { id = "3Pv4bt-9E47-aDii-mJbB-6OYc-pCFS-7dOBv9" device = "/dev/hdi" # Hint only }
when I pv(re)created hdi1
