Hi Doug,

Just after posting the note below, it hit me that I had failed to include 'ext3' in the mount entry for the LVM in fstab.  Once I corrected that mistake, the reworked LVM2 mounts.

Now that I'm over that hurdle, I will continue getting the system back into service until the next place that I mess up!

Hi Doug,

Reading over the notes I had for creating an LVM2 drive, I decided that I had made a mistake and reworked the setup.  It seemed to work more like I remember from 2007, but it still will not mount on boot.

My updated data is:

Ken,

I have instructions at work on how to move an LVM to a different 
system/drive.  I'll dig them up when I get to work, in a few hours and 
send them to you.
