Mark and Scott, Well I apparently did call it home-vg. That's what the 'lvs' command shows. Although, I'm pretty sure I didn't do it intentionally.
I'll have to try Mark's rename process. Dave Dave Stuart Prin. Info.

A simple "lvs" command will show if that is true or not. If you want to change those names, you can unmount the LV, then lvchange -a n /dev/system_vg/old-lv-name lvrename /dev/system_vg/old-lv-name /dev/system_vg/new-lv-name lvchange -a y /dev/system_vg/new-lv-name mount /dev/system_vg/new-lv-name /mountpoint Then make sure to update /etc/fstab to reflect the new name(s).
