Public bug reported:
Set up 2 physical hard drives under LVM management. Neither of them had
Linux on them, they were just ext3 backup drives. Since I lost my main
drive that had Ubuntu 8.10 x86_64, which was not LVM managed. Did the
following:
1. Reinstalled Ubuntu 8.10 on main drive (installed LVM2 and rebooted)
2. Attempting to get back one of the LVM backup drives
- pvcreate /dev/hda1
Physical volume "/dev/sda1" successfully created
- vgcreate SecondaryGroup /dev/sda1
Volume group "SecondaryGroup" successfully created
- lvcreate -L 90G SecondaryGroup
Logical volume "lvol0" created
Here's the problem:
mount /dev/SecondaryGroup/lvol0 /mnt/backup
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
These LVM drives were originally formated as EXT3 (with the x8e on
in the partitions)
mount -t ext3 /dev/SecondaryGroup/lvol0 /mnt/backup
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on
/dev/mapper/SecondaryGroup-l
What I want to do is remount these LVM drives but not lose the data on
them. All instructions I find has a mkfs in them, which will destroy
the data.
How do I simply remount LVM drives at this point?
