Hi Alan,
first of all thx for the quick response.
I already checked for the physical presence and function of the
disks, also checked SMART parameters with
smartctl -> everything is fine.
I changed nothing to the installed system. No new kernel, nothing.
devfs was enabled already before.
pvdisplay/vgdisplay didn't find anything (see my previous post).
vgchange -a y can't find a VG, too.
I have absolutely no clue what happened. I already thought maybe
there were still some filesystem writes cached
and non flushed, when I rebooted but that would be really strange...
Any more ideas?
Regards,
Constantin

First figure out if your disks are there: dmesg|grep [sh]d
Check for partitions: fdisk -l
then see whether LVM stuff is there: pvscan ; vgscan
Look at your distro's boot-up process.... maybe you installed a new
kernel and forgot to include the initrd that activates the VGs
(via: vgchange -a y)
Or maybe you enabled devfs or something, and the discs now show up
with a different device path.
