I agree with your reluctance.

What I would do, being the paranoid person that I am, is create a second
mount point, called /opt-1 or something else that you like, and mount
your LV there, as "mount /dev/Volume00/LogVol00 /opt-1" and compare the
two.  I suspect that you will find that your /opt-1 will be empty, in
which case you can then move all of the files in /opt to /opt-1, unmount
/opt-1, remount it as /opt, fix your /etc/fstab and everything will be
as you expect.

I was about to go on and suggest that you could then add /stage to your
/etc/fstab, but we don't know whether it was actually created.  What
does "lvscan" show?
