Is there any way around that?

Ugh. I hate when that is done. You might have a shot at getting something to mount if you do this for starters: pvscan vgscan lvscan If LVM finds the logical volume, and there aren't any conflicts, it might create a device node for it. You should then be able to mount the resulting logical volume.

When I try to mount dasdb2 I get: [EMAIL PROTECTED] dev]# mount /dev/dasdb2 /mnt/322C mount: you must specify the filesystem type When I try to specify type ext3 I get: [EMAIL PROTECTED] dev]# mount /dev/dasdb2 /mnt/322C -t ext3 mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/dasdb2, or too many mounted file systems Does Centos/RedHat Enterprise 4 use a different filesytem type, and if so, how do I find out what it is? Also, I am curious why df shows the root file system at /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00.
