I actually selected "shutdown" option in kde.
I cant say that fsck fixed - it reported a short read. I got completely
shocked and just for the hell of it ran la just to observe that.
Everything is "back".
Check /var/log/messages for I/O errors on sdb.
Since then I
copied all files. To backup lv and ran that fack. Last reported no
problem.
You mentioned something about extended partitions?
If sdb1 had been the extended partition, then it overlaps both sdb5 and
sdb6, so that building a PV/filesystem on sdb5 would overwrite the
existing filesystem on sdb1. That would have come under the "very
stupid" category. (I.e. don't try to add sdb2 as a PV! Does EL5
prevent this somehow? I don't have anything expendable attached to
test on...)
