# su -
password:

# vgscan --mknodes
# ls /dev/mapper

-> this will give you every thing in the name of LVM that U have.

now to simply mount from konsole
# mount -t ext3 /dev/mapper/VGname-LVname   /mnt/urmountpoint

<<< Be carefull with fstab - make a bakup of this file >>>
# cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.bak     <- or choose suitable name

put this line in /etc/fstab to make mount auto
/dev/VGname/LVname      /mnt/urmountpoint   ext3    defaults        0 0

to get VGname / LVname
# lvscan
# vgscan
# pvscan
