Unfortunately, one of the three partitions got hosed by accident
during my earlier experiments, but I managed to restore the LVM
following the instructions on this page:
<http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_85_5843.shtm>

For some reason though I can't mount it as I did previously. The command

  mount /dev/zinka/films films/

returns

  mount: you must specify the filesystem type

I am missing something? Here is vgdislplay output:

vgdisplay -v
