What about hda2? According to your fdisk output, that's the PV on this disk. Does hda2 appear in /proc/partitions? >> It'd also be good to see what pvscan shows, for e.g.: > > pvscan -vvv outputs: > Likewise - all I can see here is hda1 - that's a type 0x83 (Linux) partition, rather than the 0x8e (Linux LVM) partition that we're interested in here.

You can use a pastedump service like http://p.opsat.net/new if you don't have access to somewhere to host this.
