Well, I see I would have to remove the volume group first, at the very
least.
I wouldn't. Just think of your vgcreate as removing all LVs and
renaming the VG. Now you want to undo all that
with a vgcfgrestore.
But I would just be back in the middle of my problem description on
ubuntuforums, wouldn' t I?
Still no volume group, still no logical volumes...
Does knoppix have an older lvm version that doesn't recognize your
metadata? I *hope* it doesn't have lvm1, which used binary metadata....
If you see the human readable metadata, and knoppix doesn't, then there
is a problem with knoppix. Either ancient lvm, or the device filtered
out for vgscan in lvm.conf.
