[linux-lvm] LVM on multi-boot Linux system?

Hi,
I just built a non-root LVM system,
created a Lvolume for root, migrated root to it.
I can now dual boot between these; root on LV or root on
partition.

I've also built a "Linux From Scratch" system
on a new Lvolume.

So now I have a 'pristine' Linux system,
with supporting programs, libraries and kernel which
actually *boots* and when it does boot,
/dev/commsVG/lfsLV is mounted on /

So its an LVM-root system...

(Now triple-boot; 
	non-LVM root RH7.1, LVM-root RH7.1 and LVM-root LFS)


Problem; 
- - pvscan finds the physical volumes
- - vgscan fails with an error
- - there is *no* /dev/commsVG
	hence no volumes can be accessed...

Any ideas? 
Am I just pushing my luck?
