Recently I also suffered problems with LVM(2)
These are very basic things I presume U might have already done but just in case if not ...
imho pl boot with rescue disk (or mode)
As a precaution select read-only mount of file system
if required chroot to /mnt/sysimage
# mount ! look for lvm things specifically a word - mapper
# pvdisplay
# vgdisplay
# lvdisplay
# pvscan
# vgscan
# vgscan
# lvscan
thiese will tell status of lvm things
Then check /etc/fstab (carefully)
U may then "very very carefully" use e2fsck or fsck [{("after dismounting the volumes")}] as you may you deem fit.
"very very carefully" means, as a minimum, first read both manpages, try these commands in read-only mode + do not modify anything + verbose.
### use vgck with caution and also checkout /etc/lvm/lvm.conf
U may try in init 1 mode also but more caution requested.
good luck & Pl post if U get it right this way or anyway.
