Do you have the logs generated by anaconda available still? These are
placed into /var/log/anaconda* and /root/install.log*. There should also
be a file named /root/anaconda-ks.cfg which has the kickstart commands
to re-create the storage configuration used in the install.

This would let us see what anaconda had tried to configure on the system.

If you can boot the machine into rescue mode and generate an lvmdump
tarball that would also be helpful.

Do you have somewhere you could post those online? That would be better
than sending large attachments to the list.

Kind regards,
Bryn.
