That's easy - I didn't think of it (it's to easy) AND I don't know how, but
it sure sounds like a great idea.
I have to admit I've been relying on Yast alot so far (which I can't use at
this point) as my repertoire of Linux commands is pretty weak (like almost
nonexistent?) ...
So if you can give me a hint as to how I would go about doing that - I
assume there are line command(s) for this ...?
Note that I am still in "maint" mode, and I don't know exactly how limited
that is, i.e. is there anything that I might be missing that would prevent
networking from starting?
Of course, I suppose I will find that out as soon as I try it - nothing
beats trial by fire, eh?

Please respond to

Jim,
If your system is back to where it was before, why can't you start your
network and come in via SSH? Not that learning to use ed or sed isn't a
good idea, but still...

First, I'd like to say thanks for all of the great ideas/suggestions,
and second, I'd like to apologize for not responding sooner. Also, just
so everyone knows - I am working with a SLES9 SP3 based server.
So, what I have figured out at this point is that I definitely did not
make the LVM persistent via updating zipl.conf & doing a mkinitrd &
zipl, and since I hadn't IPLed the server since creating the LVM, it was
just waiting to "get me" - I guess I assumed to much from Yast as that
is what I used to create the LVM. At this point I have been working with
the "cippled" server to see what I could figure out & then accomplish
based on everyone's feedback and so haven't taken the recovery system
route yet ...
Here's what I have been able to do so far:
After bringing the 2 volumes online (chccwdev) and re-establishing the
LVM
(vgchange) and then mounting it (mount /pathname), it looks like I'm
back to were I was before - the directories & data appear to be intact
within the LVM space as well.
