Did you run commands against hdg or hdg1? (If it's partitioned you should always use hdg1, never hdg.) Updating to a recent version of the lvm2 tools will help avoid that in future. Meanwhile it might be that you need to wipe the partition tables (the 1st 512 bytes of hdg and hdk - back it up first).
