"lvdisplay -m" shows what is in LVM metadata. The LVs just fail to
activate in your case (root and swap_1). Since the LVM commands
(lvdisplay) are able to read the metadata without any errors, I would
assume that *some other software* on your machine openede the needed PVs
before LVM did, so LVM is unable to activate the LVs (aka unable to load
the mapping tables).

Thanks, Malahal.
