[linux-lvm] Re: undelete logical volume

[Thomas]

Use RIP (R)ecovery (I)s (P)ossible! (v15.2)  to boot up.
And use command hexdump /dev/hda1 to collect the old LVM config information.
They are nearly 1200.
Use the information to create a metadata file.
Use cfgrestore to recover.
Then mount back the lost LogVol00.

Just my two cents.
